The TSPA is uniquely positioned in
this respect as being the Model teaching Academy at the state level. TSPA is
committed to emerge as a centre of excellence in Police Training for different
levels of police officers.
There is a well equipped Forensic Science Lab with many Simulated Mock Crime
Scenes both Indoor as well as outdoor. To name a few, there are Indoor
Simulated Crime Scenes of Rape & Murder, Murder for Gain, Robbery,
Burglary, and Homicide with Fire Arm, suicide by poison etc arranged at the new
Library Block as well as the Academic Block Circle.
The outdoor Simulated Crime Scenes of Hit & Run Accidents, Road Accident,
and Homicide etc are simulated at Yoga Lawns sites and its vicinity for
conducting practical training. Knowledge is imparted by providing information
but Skill has to be developed by their individual involment and practice in
form of practical sessions.
Detailed procedures of Protection, Recording, Searching, Lifting and Packing of
Physical Evidences, practicing to write the Letter of Advice is taught to the
trainees in form of newly introduced Integrated Practical Approach where not
only the Forensic Science & sessions of the trainees.
Computerized Simulation Lab using Quick Soft Technology is facilitated for
hands on practice for Handling, Lifting & Packing (HLP) of various Physical
Evidences in form of 3D modeling, animations & interactive programme based
tools for ground level use by the police forces in their day to day crime
busting activity.
The Forensic wing of TSPA is also credited with a mini Lab for practical
demonstration purposes i.e Finger Print Lab for being trained in the method of
identifying, developing, lifting & recording Finger Prints from suspect /
accused persons and also on different articles available at scene of crime.
The police officers are subjected to a two tier induction and in-service
training in Forensic Science including Mandatory courses for SIs which is a
prerequisite for being considered for promotion to the next cadre. The first
course in FS/FM is the First Mandatory Course of which the new recruits are
subjected to FS training in their Induction training. After 2 to 3 yrs of field
experience they are exposed further for advanced courses in FS/FM.
The main role of the TSPA Forensic Science faculty is to develop knowledge and
skill in Forensic Science to all SIs /RSIs/ PCs / pre promotion training for
head constables to become SIs/ conversion training for SIs of armed police to
civil police & specialized training to in-service personnel, public and
private sector bank staff including Security Guards ,Public Prosecutors &
other Agencies. The Forensic Science faculty has a role to impart training to
the trainee police IPS officers, newly recruited probationary DSPs from other
states like Tripura etc.
Frequent updation of the course materials, Power Point presentations and Crime
scene management skills are taken up on regular basis. In this way the Training
schedule at TSPA equips the police officer to have the latest information on
Science and Technology which is very useful to all the trainees as they are in
the continuous process of upgrading their knowledge & Skill. This will help
them in Crime Investigation as well as to strengthen the Criminal Justice
System.
FS & FM labs equipped
with Kwick Crimesim, An investigative 3d Simulator software for Crime
scene management training and proficiency testing which
imparts cutting edge technology to provide to policy
trainees I the best practices to be adopted in the process of Pre-
collection, Collection and Post-Collection of evidence from
10 different crime scenes.
