Johannesburg - The SA Police Service (SAPS) had managed to reduced its forensic backlog by 92 percent, it said on Monday.

“Since [the] 2009/10 financial year, the forensic laboratories reduced [the] backlog from 59 023 to [a] commendable level of about 4440 case entries which depicts [a] 92 percent backlog reduction up to the third quarter of 2014/15,” said SAPS spokesman Lt-Gen Solomon Makgale.

This included backlogs in DNA and drug analysis as well as trichology.

That's quite a catch up! Let's hope nothing was overlooked.
