Inspector General of Police Sarbendra Khanal had led a Nepali delegation as the chief of National Central Bureau, the Nepal office of Interpol.

Ensuring real-time data in the hands of frontline officers and increased cooperation across various agencies in combating terrorism, organised crime and cyber crime were key topics during the four-day meeting. Quoting IGP Khanal, the release said Nepal presence in the general assembly was very strong.

&The meet dwelt on ways to prevent and combat cross-border crime and cybercrime in addition to discussion on other Interpol activities.
