It has become critical to adopt new strategies to combat crime to sustain the rule of law in society. Digital proof may help deter such crimes. With its attributes, digital evidence can collect and analyze data to draw findings. Digital evidence can help ensure that justice is served in court. To convict and prevent crime, digital evidence may be one of the most effective strategies to use in Bangladesh's judicial system.
