Kigali: The Inspector General of Police (IGP) Dan Munyuza is in Turkey for a three-day visit to enhance cooperation between Rwanda National Police (RNP) and Turkish National Police.
On February 26, IGP Munyuza met with his Turkish counterpart, Dr. Mehmet Aktas in Ankara and held discussions, which mainly focused on stronger cooperation in various areas of policing.
In 2015, the Governments of Rwanda and Turkey signed security agreements to reinforce the existing bilateral cooperation between the two countries.
Also signed in the same event held in Ankara, was a memorandum of understanding between Police institutions of the two countries to cooperate in areas of training, focusing on counter terrorism, cybercrimes, Special Forces training and Training of Trainers (ToT) courses, among others.
The security pact between the two countries rested much on strengthening partnership in areas of capacity building, sharing of information on combating transnational and organized crimes and exchange programmes, among others.
RNP also signed about 40 bilateral and multilateral MoUs with other Police institutions and organizations. (End)
