Bihar police order DNA test to resolve buffalo ownership dispute

Police in Bihar have been confronted with an unusual ownership conflict involving a single buffalo claimed by two separate owners. Both parties presented their assertions to local authorities, leading officials to seek a scientific resolution. The police decided to conduct a DNA test on the animal to establish a definitive link to the rightful proprietor. The move underscores the department's willingness to use forensic methods in civil disputes when conventional evidence falls short. The outcome of the test will determine which claimant legally possesses the buffalo, and the case is expected to close once results are verified.
