LAHORE: The Punjab Home Department has started developing the Punjab Forensic Science Agency (PFSA) on modern lines.
All old technology and machines are being replaced by modern machinery under the project. On the direction of the Punjab Home Secretary, the Punjab Forensic Science Agency is being equipped with modern robotics and artificial intelligence technology. The Punjab government has approved Rs 1 billion for the purchase of modern machinery.
Robot technology will be used for DNA analysis. With the use of advanced robot technology, there will be no room for human error during the process, while one robot is capable of completing the work of four humans.
Similarly, it has been decided to purchase the world’s latest software for audio, video analysis and speaker identification. In this way, the Punjab Forensic Science Agency will be able to conduct complete analysis and reporting of original and converted audio-video in a modern manner.
When contacted, Punjab Home Secretary Noorul Amin Mengal said that modern narcotics and drug analysis machines would also be purchased, thanks to which such drugs, which cannot be identified with old technology, could also be identified by the Forensic Science Agency. “It will be able to separately determine and analyse the chemicals and materials present in all the drugs. The Punjab Home Department is also providing advanced firearm identification technology to the agency, thanks to which if a bullet, shell or cartridge is found, the gun used can be determined with the help of a microscope,” he elaborated.
