A 10-MAN team from the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI)-Central Visayas has been sent to the City of Naga to help identify landslide victims whose bodies have decomposed or heavily disfigured.
Dr. Rene Cam, NBI-Central Visayas chief medico legal, told SunStar Cebu that starting Friday, September 21, a team of the bureau's Disaster Victims Identification (DVI) unit will be in Naga to help process the bodies that can no longer be identified physically.
Cam said that as the days go by, landslide victims in Barangay Tina-an who were buried under mud would start decomposing, making them more difficult to identify.
The DVI was first organized in Cebu during the sinking of the M/V Princess of the Stars back in 2008.
