Delhi witnessed a remarkable reduction in crime rates in 2025, with the police successfully solving over 95% of murder cases. This was largely attributed to technology-driven policing and enhanced forensic analysis, officials reported on Wednesday.

In one notable case, a 21-year-old forensic science student attempted the 'perfect murder' using academic skills and crime thriller knowledge. However, forensic inconsistencies and CCTV evidence led to the unraveling of her plot, resulting in her arrest along with accomplices.

The police showcased success across various crime categories, including a significant drop in rape and robbery cases. While snatching and extortion remain concerns, ongoing efforts and technological advancements have rendered Delhi's streets safer, demonstrating the effectiveness of modern policing techniques.
