Place of Occurrence - The scene of the offence is often depicted through rough sketches prepared by investigating officers, which include details such as the layout of the location, rooms, and relevant landmarks. However, the accuracy and clarity of these sketches vary; some cases highlight that critical details like the specific scene (e.g., bathroom) are not clearly shown or are inadequately documented B.

Open Place - Many incidents occur in open or semi-open spaces such as yards, gardens, or outside the houses, with sketches indicating the relative positioning of different locations. For example, sketches show houses facing east with entrances opposite or diagonally opposite, and measurements that match the scene's layout State by The Inspector of Police All Women Police Station Thudialur VS Santhoshkumar - Madras.

Rough Sketch - The rough sketch is a crucial piece of evidence that aids in establishing the scene of the offence. It typically includes measurements, positions of rooms, and landmarks. Nonetheless, some cases criticize the sketches for being vague or incomplete, such as not clearly marking the scene (e.g., bathroom) or lacking detailed panchanama documentation K.

Analysis and Conclusion:
The POCSO Act cases emphasize the importance of accurate and detailed rough sketches to establish the scene of occurrence, whether in enclosed or open spaces. Proper documentation, including clear depiction of the scene and corroborative measurements, enhances the credibility of evidence. Inadequate sketches can weaken prosecution cases, especially when critical areas like bathrooms are not properly shown. Therefore, meticulous scene mapping is vital in sexual offence investigations under the POCSO Act.
