We must keep up to date with modern technology especially with the sharp growth in cyber crime.

These are the words of Police Commissioner Commodore Esala Teleni to the participants at the 8th Interpol Train the Trainer Workshop on IT Crime Investigation for Asia and South Pacific, currently being held at the Holiday Inn in Suva.

Teleni said criminal activities are changing as a result of technology evolving adding this is why the Police Force should be well equipped with the knowledge of how to fight such crimes.

He added the Police Force needs to be in touch with its other counterparts around the world, as cyber crime is now becoming a global phenomenon, with crimes such as internet fraud and child pornography.

Teleni added this will also help the Force move out of the usual physical approach taken to fight crime and help them move into the future.

The workshop ends on Friday.
