DNA Technology is evolving rapidly and the amount of material required to generate a profile is becoming smaller. Fingerprints, by their nature may contain trace amounts of epithelial cells sluffed off every day by the body. Tests have been conducted whereby visible fingerprint impressions have been swabbed rather than lifted and DNA profiles developed. Other tests have been conducted whereby sealed fingerprint evidence contained in hinged lifters has been swabbed. Profiles were developed once again. The key problem from an evidenciary perspective is matching the suspect to the evidence, due to the fact that the material may not be exclusively from the perpetrator. Mixed or multiple profiles are also a problem. I hope this answers your question. Good luck.

Dear sir / Ma’am

I, Mr. Sampath Kaluarachchi work for Government Analyst’s Department as an Asst. Examiner of Questioned Documents. The Government Analyst’s Department is the only Forensic Science Laboratory for the entire country. We examine forged signatures, handwritings, Passports, counterfeit currency notes, alterations which sent by the courts of law. The officers in our department should undergo a training in the relevant field since they are required to give expert evidence in the court of law. Unfortunately, Forensic Science courses are nor available in Sri Lanka. Therefore, a degree , diploma or one year training in Questioned Document Examination will be of utmost value to the departmental work. I would be much obliged If you can send me relevant Course details.

Thank you
