Interpol support to continue as tsunami victim identification centre relocates
PHUKET, Thailand – Interpol will continue to send rotating teams to support the Thai Tsunami Victim Identification Information Management Centre (TTVI-IMC) when it relocates to the Royal Thai Police Headquarters in Bangkok almost one year after the devastating tsunami.

Nearly 3,000 victims of the 3,750 recorded by the TTVI-IMC have been identified during the past year. Interpol has played a key role in co-ordinating the international victim identification effort and in providing logistical and communications support to the centre.
