The Forensic Documentoscopy Service of the Municipal Police has a double function. It supports patrols that come across suspicious documents and prepares expert reports.

With more than 2,000 cases a year during 2023 - an average of more than five a day - it is common for the agents of this service to receive calls on the on-call numbers. It is also in charge of more atypical tasks, such as studying the graphics of the marks that graffiti artists leave on walls, cars and buses.
