In a post by the Premium Times Nigeria, the Nigerian Police force claim that a forensics analysis will be carried out on the finger prints of the FESTAC robbers. But a number of InfoSec Professionals in Nigeria have questioning how that is even possible because for a successful identification of a suspect,  their finger prints needs to be matched with a reference database.
