The Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) Mohamed Amin met INTERPOL’s Director of Global Outreach and Regional Support (DGORS) Abdulaziz Obaidalla for high-level talks at DCI Headquarters in Nairobi.
The meeting addressed three strategic priorities. These included strengthening international policing cooperation, modernising operational systems, and enhancing public service delivery through collaborative law enforcement.
As Africa’s Delegate to the INTERPOL Executive Committee, Amin reaffirmed Kenya’s commitment to deepening partnerships that drive regional and global security, including intelligence sharing and coordinated action against transnational crime.
Mr. Abdulaziz commended the DCI for its exemplary leadership and proactive engagement within the INTERPOL framework.
He noted that Kenya continues to serve as a critical anchor for regional security cooperation. He also expressed INTERPOL’s readiness to further support the DCI through enhanced technical assistance, capacity development, and access to advanced policing tools and intelligence networks.
The talks were also followed with a visit to the National Central Bureau (NCB) offices, where the delegation engaged directly with officers on operational cooperation, capacity building, and strategies to counter emerging security threats.
The engagement underscores the deep and enduring partnership between the Directorate of Criminal Investigations and INTERPOL, and shared resolve to advance international security through effective, coordinated policing.
Also present during the meeting were Apolo Africa, Head of the INTERPOL Regional Bureau for Eastern Africa Ibrahim Jillo, Commandant of the National Criminal Investigations Academy (NCIA), Lawrence Some, Personal Assistant to the Director DCI and Mutisya Mueni of the National Central Bureau (NCB), Nairobi.
