The IGP thanked the UHRC for organizing the retreat and accepting to partner with the police in eradicating human rights abuses.

“The involvement of the UPF and UHCR staff in this strategic thinking process will ensure that we all understand, appreciate, internalize, own challenges and implement recommendations that will facilitate proper policing,” the IGP said.
