NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Tuesday observed that forgery of thumb impressions is nearly impossible, and genuineness of a property transaction cannot be doubted merely because a thumb impression was affixed instead of a signature. A bench of Justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul and Hrishikesh Roy said: ''The key characteristic of thumb impression is that every person has a unique thumb impression. Forgery of thumb impressions is nearly impossible." (IANS)
