The Sri Lanka Police have introduced new divisions under its Criminal Investigation Department (CID) to improve efficiency in handling complex investigations.
The restructuring includes the establishment of a Financial Crimes Investigation Division (FCID), an Illegal Assets Investigation Unit, and a Central Crimes Investigation Division.
Additionally, Provincial Crimes Divisions will be set up across all provinces except the Western and Southern provinces, Police said.
A Senior Deputy Inspector General (SDIG) for Criminal and Financial Investigations will oversee financial crime and illegal asset probes, while six specialized units will focus on organized crime, cybercrime, human trafficking, maritime crimes, and intelligence analysis. (Newswire)
