DUSHANBE, April 23, 2014, Asia-Plus — President Emomali Rahmon has urged all bodies of power to take adequate measures to provide information security of the country.
He stated this today at a joint meeting of both chambers of the parliament.
“Today, international crime organizations use Internet to commit cyber crimes, terrorism and extremism and the first duty of the law enforcement agencies is in countering these crimes,” President Rahmon noted.
The president also expressed concern about increase in the number of juvenile crimes in the country and ordered the Interior Ministry and the Prosecutor-General’s Office to work out a draft law on prevention of juvenile delinquency within the next six months.
He also ordered the Interior Ministry to work out a draft program for strengthening relationship between police and public.
