Key Area 3: Supporting law enforcement institutions

To promote public security, stability, and respect for the human rights of all people in Kosovo, UNMIK supports local law enforcement agencies in capability enhancing initiatives, for example:

This has enabled the agency to deliver high quality digital forensic reports and evidence in line with international and European standards.
