The Anantapur district police in Andhra Pradesh have been equipped with a new mobile forensic vehicle, aimed at enhancing on‑site crime investigation capabilities.
Anantapur district police in Andhra Pradesh have taken delivery of a mobile forensic vehicle designed to support on‑site evidence collection and analysis. The vehicle is expected to enable investigators to conduct preliminary forensic examinations directly at crime scenes, reducing the time required to transport samples to stationary labs.
Police officials said the addition of the mobile unit is part of a broader effort to modernise investigative infrastructure across the state. By bringing laboratory‑grade equipment to the field, the force hopes to improve the speed and accuracy of investigations, particularly in remote or time‑sensitive cases.
The new vehicle will be deployed across the district to assist in a range of investigations, from violent crimes to property offences. Its introduction reflects the department's commitment to leveraging technology for more effective law enforcement.
