Dubai Police, in process of setting up US$ 137 million forensic lab. Focus on forensic criminology to drive demand at Intersec 2012.
- (1888PressRelease) December 23, 2011 - Criminals are getting increasingly ingenious, with many turning to the latest technology to commit crimes of growing sophistication. As this trend proliferates worldwide, there is increasing pressure on security forces and police personnel worldwide to harness the latest scientific methods to combat increasingly clever criminals.
Security agencies around the world and especially in the Middle East region are turning their attention to the latest developments in crime-fighting science and technology to keep a step ahead. This has led to growing interest in the latest advances in forensic criminology and detection methods from police and security forces from around the Middle East region.
Epoc Messe Frankfurt, organiser of the region's premier security and policing trade event, Intersec, expects these trends to be reflected in the upcoming edition of the trade exhibition and conference with strong interest already registered in this field. The three day event will take place from January 15th to 17th 2012 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.
"The use of scientific methods to combat crime and anticipate the criminals' next moves is certainly not new," said Ahmed Pauwels, Chief Executive Officer of Epoc Messe Frankfurt. "But the effectiveness of using the latest technology to aid in solving otherwise puzzling crimes has been demonstrated tellingly both in the region and on the international stage. This has led to growing emphasis on forensics and criminology by law enforcing agencies around the region," he added.
"With Dubai Police in the process of setting up a US$137 million ultra-modern, cutting-edge forensic criminology complex in the emirate, representatives from the force will be examining the latest wares of international forensic suppliers and laboratories with close interest," Pauwels stated.
Forensic criminology is expected to be a key area of interest at Intersec 2012. The safety, security and policing trade show and conference is the premier networking, trade and discussion forum for the regional security community and reflects the concerns and issues being felt around the Middle East.
