[Genetic fingerprints and computerised databases]
Abstract
The computerised databases of genetic fingerprints are laboratory tools and by extension law enforcement tools, for which the European Union has defined the applications. As these genetic profiles give no information on specific hereditary characteristics, these bases have been established in order to respect the rights and fundamental liberties of each individual. Compatible at the international level, nobody contests today their rewards in the fight against crime.
