Kenya is aiming to learn from Morocco’s expertise in fighting cybercrime, said, on Thursday in Nairobi, Kenya’s Director of Public Prosecutions, Renson Ingonga.
During a meeting with Morocco’s ambassador to the Republic of Kenya and the Republic of South Sudan, Abderrazzak Laassel, Ingonga commended Morocco’s major progress in the field of digital forensics, noting that it represents a priority cooperation field for Kenya who wishes to further learn from Morocco’s know-how.
“The partnership between Morocco and Kenya still plays a key role in promoting mutual objectives in the field of justice, particularly in the fight against transnational organized crime,” the Kenyan official emphasized, calling to further share experience in the fight against corruption and economic crime.
For his part, Laassel described the bilateral partnership as “mutually beneficial,” reaffirming the Kingdom’s commitment to strengthening this momentum through technical support, joint training programs and the exchange of legal good practices.
The two sides reviewed the progress achieved in the implementation of the partnership, before examining the fields of mutual interest, mainly counter-terrorism and the fight against cybercrime, corruption and financial crime. They also agreed to strengthen bilateral collaboration, particularly in terms of lifelong learning for prosecutors in both countries.
This meeting, held at the headquarters of the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions of Kenya, follows on from the memorandum of understanding signed in 2023 between the public prosecutors’ offices of the two countries, which established a framework for collaboration on judicial sector reforms, capacity building and the joint fight against transnational organized crime.
