Rajshekhar Jha, March 23, 2022: The Times of India
New Delhi: The ministry of home affairs has issued guidelines on international investigation requests, detailing the process to be followed by law enforcement agencies seeking assistance from abroad through official communication. The guidelines are for sending court-issued ‘letter of request (LR)’ and the MHA-issued ‘mutual legal assistance (MLAT)’ requests to other countries, the Union home secretary Ajay Bhalla said during the Interpol liaison officers’ virtual conference held at the CBI headquarters. The guidelines also have templates for drafting a request letter appropriately so that they are not turned down by the recipients. Bhalla also said that the central government had given in-principle approval to the CBI Academy to join the Interpol Global Academy’s network which would make it a regional hub for providing specialised training courses for Interpol.
