India has called for coordinated efforts through Interpol channels to address transnational crimes, including terrorism, online radicalization, and cyber-enabled financial fraud, on a real-time basis, officials revealed on Friday. At the 91st General Assembly of Interpol in Vienna, the Indian delegation, headed by CBI Director Praveen Sood, emphasized the necessity of eliminating safe havens for criminals and the proceeds of crime. The delegation also advocated for cohesive strategies to restrict the activities of transnational criminal organizations.
The team, which included NIA Director General Dinkar Gupta, participated in the four-day assembly that commenced on November 28, coinciding with the centenary year of Interpol, established in 1923. The increased utilization of Interpol channels and global law enforcement relationships resulted in the repatriation of 24 criminals and fugitives wanted by India this year, marking a record high, as per the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) spokesperson.
In discussions with law enforcement agencies from various countries, India called for enhanced coordination through Interpol to combat organized crime, terrorism, drug trafficking, money laundering, online radicalization, and cyber-enabled financial crimes in real-time. Emphasizing the denial of safe havens for criminals, the delegation highlighted the importance of coordinated strategies against criminal organizations with international reach.
