Last Updated 02 March 2016, 19:30 IST

 Truth Labs, India’s first independent Forensic Science Lab, has confirmed that two of the seven Kanhaiya Kumar ‘sedition’ videos sent by the Delhi government for examination here were found to have been doctored with a fair dose of additions and deletions.

The said tapes were shot by different people between February 9 and 11.
“We have found that certain sections of the two tapes were deleted and few visuals were inserted, the remaining five seem to be authentic,” Truth Labs Director Dr. K P C Gandhi, Former Inspector General of Police and Director, Andhra Pradesh Forensic Science Lab told the media on Wednesday.

Additions and deletions

He said that the investigation at the Truth Labs has revealed that certain audio bits have been added to Kanhaiya Kumar’s speech, refusing to disclose details of the added portions, such as slogans like “Pakistan Zindabad”.

The Truth labs has submitted its report to the Delhi government.
The video in which JNUSU president Kanhaiya Kumar, flanked by Umar Khalid at a pro-Afzal event in the university on 9 February, has become the clinching evidence in slapping sedition cases against Kanhaiya Kumar and Khaled. These videos where a group of students demanding freedom for Kashmir have gone viral on social media.

It is now believed that the  February 9 visuals were superimposed on videos shot two days after the pro-Afzal meeting at a DSU gathering on campus on February 11.
