<p>The Andhra Pradesh Police will send the recording of the alleged hate speech of Majlis legislator Akbaruddin Owaisi to the Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL) in Chandigarh, which has state-of-the-art forensic voice analysis facilities that can detect a doctored audio CD.<br /><br />The police took the decision to send the CD for the scientific analysis, as Akbaruddin Owaisi had denied that the voice was his. While admitting that he made a speech at Nirmal, Akbar said the voice that was played in the media was not his. He said some one else's voice was dubbed, to throw the blame on him.<br /><br />In view of his claim, the police recorded the voice of Akbar during his interrogation at the Armed Reserve headquarters in Adilabad where he is being questioned. The police are sending the CD of his answers as sample voice along with the Nirmal speech to Chandigarh for comparison and analysis.<br /><br />Even though the Andhra Pradesh Forensic Science Laboratory is well equipped, it does not have a voice analysis facility. Analysis at Chandigarh might take a week or ten days. Police played video recording of his speech and questioned him on Monday. Admitting that he has participated in the Nirmal public meeting where he was alleged to have made his hate speech, Akbar denied that the voice was his. The CFSL can look into audio recordings in the Akbar’s speech CD for “changes in signal levels”, “abrupt starts of conversation as well as contextual variations at some places.” </p>.<p>A senior police officer in Adilabad said that the voice forensic experts in Chandigarh could also detect words inserted at places in the recording present in the CD by electronic editing. “We believe that the CD is clean and no alterations were made to it. We hope that the CFSL will help us nail Akbar,” the police added.</p>
