A pair of Belizeans have completed a two-day training course in Mexico in forensic ballistics analysis.

The five-day crash course, which was conducted in Mexico City, included the use of the Integrated Ballistics Imaging System.

Thanks to the training, the analysts will be able to operate the IBIS TRAX 3D System that was recently donated to Belize by the government of Canada.

The system is currently being set up in the National Forensic Science Service in Ladyville.

The two sides could explore further training and followup courses, along with additional technical exchanges between Belize and Mexico, according to a government release.
