Tabuk City, Kalinga – In what is seen by many as a shot in the arm of crime fighting in the province, a crime laboratory has just been established here. It was inaugurated September 26,2007.
Inspector Joel Bentican, chief of the laboratory, said that pending the appointment of more personnel and provision of more equipment, they will be initially performing paraffin tests and authentication of the identity of motor vehicles in addition to conducting scene of the crime operation (SOCO).
Bentican said that examinations which their office cannot perform will be forwarded to the regional crime laboratory and to the national crime laboratory in cases of DNA testing.
Bentican believes that with the presence of a SOCO in the province, the criminal elements win lie low because they will have to contend with the scientific means of investigating and prosecuting crimes.
Kalinga Philippine Nation Police investigation chief PSI Joe Baday also said that the coming of the crime laboratory will be a great.
To prove his point, Baday informed that a SOCO could only be done on the murder of Vice Governor Rommel Diasen last April three days after and two days after the bloody demolition in Malapiat, Rizal last June because the SOCO team came all the way from Camp Dangwa in Benguet.
Baday said that while it is true that local police investigators are also trained in evidence gathering and handling, the SOCO are specialists and with them, “the proper way of gathering, preserving and transporting of evidence will be observed.”
“With the SOCO team already here, we can go together to the crime scene instead or waiting for them to come later,” Baday said.
Cordillera crime laboratory Chief Dalmacio Magastino, who was present during the inauguration on September 26, informed the media that there are five slots for the crime laboratory available this year to beef up the seven initial manpower of the office.
He also sees the addition of a forensic chemist to the team in the near future. With the addition of three such items for the Cordillera “one of whom will most likely be assigned to Kalinga.”
He informed that the establishment of the Kalinga laboratory is part of the program of the national leadership of the PNP Crime Laboratory to set up crime laboratories in all the provinces adding that the Kalinga crime laboratory is the second opened this year. **Estanislao Albano, Jr.

Those crime labs are nothing if the police themselves, especially native Kalinga policemen, are the ones protecting or hiding the criminals. A common knowledge here in Kalinga!
