The Punjab government has decided to build modern Forensic Training Laboratory, having 14 disciplines under one roof at the cost of Rs 1.377 billion. According to the Training Incharge, the laboratory will provide affordable education, training and Punjab Forensic Sciences Agency certification training to professionals according to internationally established competency standards.
It may be added that the forensic training section serves the entire Criminal Justice System and law enforcement officers throughout the country. Each month, approximately 2-3 programmes and about 100-150 officers are exposed to technical training. This training course focuses on the ability of law enforcement officers to demonstrate proper techniques of locating, recognizing and collecting items of physical evidence, properly package storage and submission of physical evidence, and interpretation of a crime scene to develop a profile of a possible suspect.
