Abstract Arson is defined as the deliberate and malicious burning of property having three main elements which includes burning of property, burning is incendiary in origin and the burning was started with the intent of destroying the property. There is a misconception that fingerprints and blood evidence cannot be retrieved when it is exposed to extremely high temperatures and hence in most of the cases, the perpetrators set up fire in the crime scenes in order to conceal a crime. This literature speaks about the methods which could be used to efficiently retrieve fingerprints and blood evidence from the scene of crime primarily using SPR and latex lifting method respectively. Infrared (780nm to 1 mm) photography can also be used to capture the blood evidence as blood undergoes oxidation when exposed to higher temperature.
SPR- Small particle reagent is an effective fingerprint developing method which is useful to collect fingerprints from wet, non-porous surfaces. Liquid latex is a material used to produce forms and moulded areas in handmade articles, latex clothing etc.., It exists in liquid form and on drying it turns out to be an elastic film which can easily pulled from a surface hence it is used as a method of preservation of dermal ridge evidence and also to retrieve DNA from the blood in the arson crime scene
