The research attempts to establish how modus operandi can be used to identify
suspects in burglary cases. To conduct effective investigation, it is important
for investigators to be familiar with the concept modus operandi, its elements,
its influence and its values.
To achieve the goals and objectives of the practice of modus operandi,
investigators must know how to apply modus operandi, what the situational
factors are during a criminal act, and how to use it as technique to identify
suspects in burglary cases.
The direction by implication and clarification of the crime situation is hardly
possible without the determination of the identity of the perpetrator or suspect
of a criminal act. The recognition of the modus operandi system as any form of
evidence gathering is of outmost importance. / Criminology and Security Science / M.Tech. (Forensic investigation)
