Forensic lab

The Acting Commissioner Directorate of Government Analytical Laboratory (DGAL), Eric Atalao Dradrio has said that the machines for forensic investigations have broken down or expired due to lack of maintenance on them.

An article appearing in New Vision has detailed that the country’s forensic investigations could come to a halt anytime soon if nothing is done to repair and maintain the machines.

The commissioner revealed this information as he appealed to the members of parliament to consider increasing funding to the laboratories.

“Sometime we don’t have money to periodically service these machines,” Atalao said.

One problem that faces the laboratory is having old equipment. Some of the manufactures do not manufacture their spare parts anymore as the technology evolves.

Such outdated technology has forced the forensic department to still send samples to other countries such as India and South Africa.
