The ceremony was held under the slogan: \u201cFor a SERNIC Engaged in Strategies for the Clarification of Organized and Transnational Crime, with Focus on Money Laundering, Terrorism Financing and Kidnapping.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rego also acknowledged the complexity of solving cases of kidnapping, \u201cgiven its modus-operandi, and the means and methods used in the negotiation of ransoms.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to solving several crimes related to kidnapping, according to Rego, SERNIC\u2019s challenge is to stop money laundering so that Mozambique comes off the gray list, since it presents weaknesses in the fight against this evil, according to a study by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is SERNIC\u2019s challenge to combat money laundering, organized crime, and the financing of terrorism, thus contributing to the removal of Mozambique from the gray list\u201d, the director said. Intensive work was also needed to combat drug trafficking and the trafficking in human body parts.<\/p>\n<p>In order to achieve these objectives, he said, the revision of the law on SERNIC should be speeded up, since it will allow the establishment of specialized units that will work in coordination with the central offices for the recovery of assets and the fight against organized and transnational crime.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also have, as a challenge, the approval of our first strategic plan for the 2023-2030 period. We must also purify our ranks, work on specialized training for members, and invest in modern technical resources and equipment\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n<p>Interior Minister Arse\u0301nia Massingue, who also attended the ceremony, challenged SERNIC to deepen its methods of instigation to ensure a timely fight against terrorism, and those who are financing and supporting it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe prevention and fight against crime requires staff who are properly trained to fully exercise their activities, in compliance with the legislation, and with respect for human rights and the dignity of life\u201d, Massingue said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
