PGAselvitys

PGAselvitys is a term originating from Finnish legal and administrative contexts, often referring to an expert statement or assessment provided by a PGA (Poliisiammattikorkeakoulu, the National Police University College of Finland). These statements are typically requested in legal proceedings or investigations when specialized knowledge related to law enforcement, police procedures, or forensic science is required.

The Police University College possesses expertise in various fields relevant to criminal justice, including but not limited to, criminal investigation techniques, use of force, police ethics, traffic safety, and digital forensics. When a court, prosecutor, or defense attorney needs an objective and authoritative opinion on a matter within the scope of the Police University College's expertise, they may commission a PGAselvitys.

The process usually involves a designated expert from the Police University College reviewing relevant case materials, conducting necessary analyses, and then preparing a written report. This report, the PGAselvitys, details the expert's findings, reasoning, and conclusions. It serves as evidence, providing clarity and technical insight to assist in the understanding and resolution of complex legal issues. The purpose is to ensure that decisions are informed by accurate and specialized knowledge pertaining to police operations and related scientific disciplines.
