INL and FBI Provide Counter Public Corruption Training for ISF Members and Judges
In collaboration with the FBI, the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) at the U.S. Embassy in Beirut has conducted a training on countering public corruption at the Internal Security Forces (ISF) academy in Aramoun, the Embassy said on Wednesday.
"Twenty-four ISF members and four judges were able to complete the training and benefit from the knowledge of the FBI experts," the Embassy added in a statement.
"Since 2007, the U.S. Government, through INL funding, has invested approximately $197 million in training and equipment for the ISF that has helped to professionalize and modernize Lebanon’s police forces, increase the country’s security and stability, and promote the rule of law," the statement said.
