The deputy Inspector General of Police, Momodou Sowe, said the emergent of new and varying types of crimes and the high rate at which they are committed is growing at an alarming rate, which prompted them to come up with such training.
“Combating this type of illicit activity falls within one of the cardinal responsibilities of the Gambia Police Force,” he said.
He urged the participants to be very focused throughout the sessions as it would enable them to enhance their knowledge and skills in the job.
He expressed his profound gratitude to facilitators of the training for sharing their knowledge, skills and precious time to be with them.

Hassan Baldeh, one of the participants, said the workshop would improve their capacity and expertise in investigative skills, especially with crimes related to intellectual property.
