Abstract
Among the essential, important, and vital pillars of achieving justice is modern science, which we aim to achieve as much as possible of, so that we may bring justice to both the perpetrator and the victim. Following the progress of the case, the judge and community have been assured that the evidence presented is accurate and clear, leaving no room for doubt against or for the victim. Because of the shortcomings of Arab legislation regarding scientific evidence, began taking scientific evidence, especially modern ones, which rely on contemporary methods to prove the perpetrator of red-handed crimes. The researcher concluded that it was
necessary to shed more light on the nature and use of scientific evidence in the field
of criminal proof and the shortcomings of using and employing modern and contemporary scientific evidence. This research shed light on the nature of scientific evidence and its application in criminal evidence. We defined modern scientific evidence and highlighted its unique characteristics. We provided examples of modern scientific evidence and its role in criminal evidence. The judge and the victim’s family were also assured that the judge had the authority to estimate the evidence’s value.
