Investigative Genetic Genealogy (IGG) has opened up new frontiers in the search for the perpetrators of serious crimes. The pool of data held by consumer DNA databases has enabled law enforcement agencies to undertake database matching to find biological relatives of an unknown perpetrator. This relatively new forensic practice is not, however, without concerns when benchmarked against established norms of investigative practice and criminal procedure. The critical questions emerge: how should IGG be used and in what circumstances? In this article, we contend that the current laws in Australia are not capable of regulating IGG appropriately and legislative reform is required.


This chapter presents self-test questions and answers on criminal law and incarceration in forensic psychiatry, and includes criminal procedure, criminal competencies, diminished capacity, insanity, prisoners’ rights, the death penalty, and sex offenders.

The Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP) is very different from Herziene Inlands Reglement (HIR), the Criminal Procedure Code adopts the principle of due process of law, which protects the rights of a suspect. Pretrial is an institution that oversees and can judge whether or not the act of determining the suspect conducted by the investigator is in accordance with the minimum principle of proof and in accordance with Article 183 and Article 184 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Procedure Code.

The court exercises the judicial power, thereby plays an important role in protecting human rights. However, such role varies across nations and models of criminal procedure. Vietnam, the country has been following the model of crime control, has its corresponding approach to the role of the court in protecting human rights. Notwithstanding, the current context of improving the rule of law and human rights has posed challenges and raised questions of changing the approach.
