Message
Serious and organised crime continues to kill more people that any other national security threat, and has a corrosive impact on society. The National Crime Agency (NCA) priorities remain to tackle the high harm, high impact offenders who exploit the vulnerable through the means of criminality. With our close partnership and teamwork with the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence we continue to disrupt and dismantle serious criminal networks and supply chains operating internationally.
With our close co-operation and collaborative working with the DRI, over the last year we have worked to undertake operational activity and follow through on intelligence leads to identify and dismantle key organised crime groups and build our intelligence picture regarding upstream drugs, chemical and commodity supply, involving UK and Indian Organised Crime Groups.
The NCA ILO based in India, Robert Holness is committed to ensuring that the excellent joint working partnership between the UK and Indian Government targets the most serious criminals through our 4P approach of Prepare, Protect, Pursue and Prevent.
Congratulations on another successful year for DRI and on the Celebration of the 63rd Foundation Day on 4 December 2020. The NCA continues to value its collaboration with the DRI and looks forward to continuing to develop and enhance our operational effectiveness throughout the coming year.
