FBI plant Ausbau des Büros in Nairobi während die Partnerschaft mit der DCI in eine neue Phase eintritt

Das FBI und Kenias Directorate of Criminal Investigations haben vereinbart, ihre Zusammenarbeit auszuweiten, einschließlich Plänen zur Verstärkung des Legal Attaché Office des FBI in Nairobi.

Diese Entwicklung wurde während eines Besuchs des stellvertretenden FBI-Direktors Andrew Bailey am 9. Mai im DCI-Hauptquartier im Mazingira Complex in Nairobi bestätigt. Beide Behörden bekräftigten ihre langjährige strategische Partnerschaft.

Ein zentrales Ergebnis ist die Ernennung eines regionalen Programmmanagers zur Bekämpfung grenzüberschreitender Korruption, um die technische Unterstützung und spezialisierte Ausbildung zu fördern. DCI-Direktor Mohamed Amin hob vergangene Erfolge bei gemeinsamen Ermittlungen zu Terrorismus, Cyberkriminalität und anderen Straftaten hervor.

Die Behörden vereinbarten zudem eine Vertiefung der Zusammenarbeit in den Bereichen digitale Forensik, künstliche Intelligenz und die Verfolgung von Kryptowährungen. Bailey lobte Kenias Bemühungen zur Korruptionsbekämpfung für ihre Rolle bei der Stärkung des Vertrauens von Investoren.
