45-day Criminal Investigation Course

Sixty-one police investigators from the province of Zamboanga del Sur
Police Office are undergoing a 45-day Criminal Investigation Course
(CIC).

Senior Supt. Jose Bayani Gucela, Zamboanga del Sur police director,
said the conduct of the training and seminar is in compliance with the
letter of instruction (LOI) from Camp Crame ordering all investigators
to undergo formal criminal investigation training, noting there are
many incompetent investigators.

The participants of the training and seminar are assigned in the
different parts of the province of Zamboanga del Sur which comprises
of one city and 26 municipalities.

Gucela said the training and seminar is aimed to develop competent
field investigators and to further hone their investigative
capability, especially those who possess the skills to handle proper
crime incident investigation resulting to its immediate resolution.

Gucela said the training is divided into four modules wherein the
participants will be exposed in General Subjects, Laws and
Jurisprudence, Investigative Procedures, and Court Practices.

They will also hold mock trials to evaluate what they have learned
during the seminar, which started last week, Gucela said.

He explained that the investigators should possess full theoretical
background in the conduct of investigation "so that the cases they
will file in the court will prosper."
