Money laundering and financing of terrorism

On 23 November 2015, within Continuous Training Program (CTP), KJI organized training on "Money laundering and financing of terrorism".

This training aimed to deepen the theoretical and practical knowledge of judges and prosecutors in identifying and classifying money laundering cases and identifying elements of criminal acts of terrorism.

During the training initially were discussed the role and authority of the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) in the investigation and detection of these crimes, emphasizing the importance of cooperation with relevant institutions. Furthermore, the training focused on the elaboration of legal framework, with particular emphasis on provisions of the Law on Prevention of Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism, forms of performance, stages of money laundering and efficient ways of investigation, disclosure and prosecution of money laundering.

Among others, were treated financing of terrorism, elements, commission stages, indicators that affect its appearance, and appropriate forms for overseeing the financing of terrorism, in the context of preventing it. Combating of this nature presents a major challenge.

Training methodology focused on combination of the theory with practical cases, where participants had the opportunity to discuss above mentioned issues.

Beneficiaries of this training were judges and prosecutors of basic instance.
