| 10 | == Description == |
| 11 | |
| 12 | Dead bodies will be recovered from the scene and taken to a collection point or morgue, where some standard procedures are performed to capture post-mortem information for clearing the cause of death and establishing the identity of the deceased. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | At the same time, detailed ante-mortem data will be gathered for person who have been reported missing (usually in interviews with relatives), in order to match them with post-mortem reports. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | If a possible match is found, the case will be completed by additional cross-checks to eventually establish the identification of the deceased (or to it out). |
