India condemns all forms of terrorism and emphasizes the global challenge of online radicalisation at Interpol conference
Underlining that there can be no distinction between "good terrorism and bad terrorism", India has said online radicalisation continues to pose a significant challenge to global security.
Heading the Indian delegation at the recently-concluded 19th Interpol Conference of Heads of National Central Bureaux at France's Lyon, Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Director Praveen Sood highlighted the challenges posed by the nexus between organised crime, terrorism and extremist ideologies.
Mr. Sood said online radicalisation poses a significant challenge to global security.
He unequivocally condemned all forms of terrorism and conveyed that there can be no distinction between "good terrorism, bad terrorism".
The event was attended by the national central bureaux of 136 countries, represented by senior police officials, according to a statement issued by the CBI.
The National Central Bureau (NCB) in each country is the nodal organisation responsible for coordination with Interpol. In India, the CBI is the designated NCB.
The aim of the event was to strengthen the operational cooperation among the NCBs of Interpol to combat transnational crimes.
