A ranking police official of the Philippine National Police (PNP) national headquarters at Camp Crame, Quezon City said the organization wants to use modern technology in the prevention and solution of crimes.
Chief Supt. Alex Paul Monteagudo, deputy director, Directorate for Investigation Division Management (DIDM) of the PNP, stressed this on Friday during the closing ceremony of the one-month criminal investigation course for 62 police investigators of the Negros Oriental Provincial Police Office.
Monteagudo pointed out that criminals are already using modern technology to commit crimes like cyber sex, cyber recruitment, detonating bombs with the use of cellphones and the like.
He said the police would like to exploit this technology to effectively arm policemen in crime prevention and solution.
Aside from the Integrated Fingerprint Investigation Sytem (IPIS), the PNP has also acquired the Integrated Ballistic Identification System for cross-matching of evidences, electronic rogue gallery and new booking systems.
It is also propagating the electronic blotter system or the crime incident reporting system where information are stored in the computer for future references.
Former Negros Oriental provincial director Sr. Supt. Augusto Morales Marquez, Jr. is charged with coming up with a protocol and procedure on this matter, Monteagudo said.
