Kenya and Mozambique have renewed their commitment to combat transnational organised crime and terrorism to enhance regional security and justice.

This comes after the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) hosted Mozambique’s Deputy Attorney General Dr. Amelia Machava and her delegation for a high-level meeting in Nairobi aimed at deepening cooperation in addressing complex cross-border crimes.

Dr. Machava is in Kenya as part of an international cooperation mission designed to promote the exchange of best practices and foster stronger regional partnerships in the fight against complex cross-border crimes.

During the meeting, the ODPP Kenya and Mozambique’s Central Office for Combating Transnational Organized Crime (GCCCOT) agreed on a roadmap to bolster institutional capacity through joint training initiatives.

The two institutions also agreed to enhanced mutual legal assistance, coordinated regional enforcement efforts, and the establishment of joint task forces targeting transnational criminal networks.
