On 10-11 January 2023, the eighth and last Coordination Meeting on Cybercrime was held in Konya in hybrid format. The meeting was attended by 44 representatives of the Ministry of Justice Directorate General of Criminal Affairs, Konya Provincial Police and Provincial Gendarmerie Command, Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency, The Banks Association of Türkiye, Forensic Medicine Institution of Türkiye, Turkish Bar Associations, prosecutors, judges, and the project’s national and international consultants.
This activity aimed to improve co-operation among relevant national institutions, through exchange of information, experience and discussion on mutual challenges faced in all phases of judicial proceedings with regards to cybercrime related offences.
During the 2-day event, participants exchanged on the identification of problems, good comparative practices, coordination between public and private institutions, and cooperation among the main actors of the investigation and prosecution phases.
The now completed coordination meetings on cybercrime will lead to creating a comprehensive report on coordination on cybercrime, and concrete recommendations will be prepared as a follow up of these meetings. The report will aim to support the institutionalisation of this dialogue through a platform supported by the Ministry of Justice.
This meeting was organised under the EU/CoE Joint Project “Strengthening the Criminal Justice System and the Capacity of Justice Professionals on Prevention of the European Convention on Human Rights Violations in Turkey”.
