Boko Haram’s Threats Will Be Neutralized – INTERPOL

The International Police, INTERPOL, has vowed to neutralize the threats posed on the world by Boko Haram, ISIS and other related terrorist groups.

This decision was reached at the just-concluded INTERPOL’s meeting to exchange information linked to Foreign Terrorist Fighters travelling to and from Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad and the Syrian conflict zone.

The three-day event which had the attendance of law enforcement and counter-terrorism officials from around the world enabled the 111 participants from nearly 40 countries to exchange best practice on how to address and neutralize the threat posed by Boko Haram, ISIS and other terrorist groups using expertise gained in the wider conflict zone as a platform to train and plan attacks against Western and other targets.

Our correspondent who monitored the event via webcast reports that the meeting, which came few weeks after the Paris terror attacks and follows a string of incidents including in Turkey, Lebanon, Chad, Iraq and Nigeria, will help specialists to develop a global overview of the current terror threat posed by both individuals and networks.

Briefing participants at the meeting, Spain’s Minister of the Interior, Jorge Fernández Díaz, said international cooperation was essential in facing terrorism and Spain would continue to work closely with INTERPOL and all those committed to combating this threat.

The meeting, co-hosted by the Spanish National Police and the INTERPOL National Central Bureau in Madrid addressed four key topics: Gathering intelligence on foreign terrorist fighters via social media; Identifying and disrupting travel and travel facilitation networks; Involvement of returnees in terrorist or other criminal activity; And terror attacks by radicalized individuals who have not travelled to conflict zones.

Since the unanimous adoption in September 2014 of UN Security Council Resolution 2178 which identified INTERPOL as the ‘global law enforcement information sharing’ platform, data on foreign terrorist fighters shared through the Organization’s channels has increased six-fold, with some 5,800 individuals identified so far in INTERPOL’s systems.

In October this year a US Homeland Security Committee task force report recognized INTERPOL’s systems as ‘crucial global tools for combating terrorist and foreign fighter travel’. The report also highlighted how data from the world police body had enabled US law enforcement to identify hundreds of previously unknown terrorist suspects and foreign fighters.
