New Delhi:

The CBI will train its officers at IIM Bangalore and National Law School to emphasise on capacity building, the agency's Director Anil Sinha said today.

Mr Sinha was speaking to his officers at the 52nd foundation day of Central Bureau of Investigation or CBI during an internal program which was out of bounds for media but was webcast live.

Highlighting the modernisation steps undertaken by the agency, which were brainchild of his predecessor Ranjit Sinha, he said CBI officers will get training at IIM Bangalore and National Law School in batches of 60 each.

The agency has also proposed to set up an International Centre of Excellence in Investigation besides a modern Forensic Science Lab, he said.

According to Mr Sinha help of forensics in criminal investigation is taken in only 5-6 per cent cases.

Mr Sinha claimed the Centre of Excellence in Investigation would not only offer training to investigators and prosecutors in India but also offer training courses to law enforcement agencies of SAARC/ASEAN Region.

The agency has often been criticised probe for its lack of forensic evidence in cases like Badaun suicide and Aarushi murder case.
