The Edalji Case refers to a legal controversy in early 20th-century England involving George Edalji, a British-Indian solicitor wrongfully convicted of a crime. In 1903, he was accused of mutilating animals in the village of Great Wyrley, leading to his conviction and a three-year prison sentence. The case raised questions about racial prejudice and the reliability of evidence. After his release, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, took an interest in Edalji's case. He conducted his own investigation and published a pamphlet advocating for Edalji's innocence. This public support eventually led to Edalji's exoneration in 1910, highlighting issues of justice and discrimination.
