Police in Winterthur have a secret weapon in their midst - one of their officers is a ‘super recogniser’.
He has the ability to identify people in a split second, even if he hasn’t seen them for years.
A spokesman for the force says he’s been able to help with several investigations. Not just finding suspects, but also exonerating some.
The police admit it’s not infallible and is used to assist. It doesn’t mean evidence isn’t required.
It’s thought around 2% of the population have such a skill. They’re also sought after by casinos and stadium operators to keep out trouble makers and cheats.
