Gov't to create DNA database for convicted felons
SEOUL, Dec. 30 (Yonhap) -- South Korea will enforce a new anti-crime law beginning next year that will allow authorities to collect and store DNA samples of convicted felons for use in future investigations, government officials said Wednesday.
The National Assembly has approved a new law on use and protection of DNA information aimed at reducing recidivism among violent criminals, the Justice Ministry said in a release. The law will take effect in July next year.
