CEBU CITY, Philippines - The National Bureau of Investigation-Disaster Victim Identification (NBI-DVI) has already taken DNA samples of 111 out 199 remains recently retrieved from capsized MV Princess of the Stars off Romblon.
GMA’s network news Balitang Bisdak reported that only 88 cadavers were not sampled as of Friday. The NBI-DVI vowed to finish taking DNA samples before Christmas, the report added.
All the 199 remains represent the second batch of cadavers brought to Cebu for testing at the processing site located at the Cebu International Port.
The NBI is encouraging the families of the victims to submit themselves for DNA sampling for possible match-up with still-unidentified victims.
