FBI Director calls on CBI chief, discusses enhanced coordination between two agencies over transnational crimes

A U.S. delegation led by Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Christopher A. Wray on December 11 held a meeting with the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) chief, Praveen Sood, and other senior officials for enhanced coordination between the two agencies in combating transnational crimes.

“The meeting focused on strengthening exchange of information on criminal matters for improved coordination in combating transnational crimes and sharing of expertise in the investigation of technology enabled crimes,” said the CBI.

It said that both the agencies recognised the challenges posed by organised crime networks, cyber enabled financial crimes, ransomware threats, economic crimes and transnational crimes. “The need to expedite sharing of evidence and for closer assistance in bringing criminals and fugitives to face justice was deliberated upon,” the agency said.
