The Russian and Armenian police should step up their joint fight
against organized crime, Russian Interior Minister Rashid Nurgaliyev
said at a joint meeting of high-ranking police officials of the two
countries here on Thursday [23 June].
"The level of coordination of the two departments in this sphere
leaves much to be desired," Nurgaliyev said.
"The remaining dissociation in the activities of law-enforcement
bodies negatively affects the effectiveness of the struggle against
organized criminal groups with international links, and hampers the
search and detention of their leaders and active members," he noted.
There remain to be considerable gaps in the legislative regulation of
this work, according to the Russian minister.
On Thursday, the Russian and Armenian police officials met to discuss
interaction in seeking out and detaining wanted criminals.
Much has been done in this field, but unresolved problems remain. "The
share of repeat requests for search for the accused remains
impermissibly high, which is foremost explained by the delays in the
arrival of the necessary documents on extradition," Nurgaliyev said.
In addition, the formation of an inter-state information databank
encountered problems because the control over the quality of input
documents is not effected in full measure, he said.
