	(iii) on anything worn or carried by the victim at the time when the offence was committed, or
	(iv) on or within the body of any person or thing or at any place associated with the commission of the offence;

	The informant therefore requests that a war rant be issued authorizing the taking from (name of person) of the number of samples of bodily substances that are reasonably required for forensic DNA analysis, provided that the person taking the samples is able by virtue of training or experience to take them by means of the investigative procedures described in subsection 487.06(1) of the Criminal Code and provided that, if the person taking the samples is not a peace officer, he or she take the samples under the direction of a peace offi cer.
