DSI Enhances
Personnel Capacity in Utilizing INTERPOL's Database to Verify Suspects’
Information
On December 3, 2024, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, at Conference Room 1, 1st Floor, Department of Special Investigation (DSI) Building, Police Captain Thinavudth Silapat, Director of the Foreign Affairs and Transnational Crime Bureau, presided over a lecture for 37 DSI personnel who are tasked with preventing and suppressing major crimes classified as special cases and significant transnational crimes.
The lecture covered the following topics:
1. "Introduction to INTERPOL and the I-24/7 System,” presented by Police Lieutenant Colonel Woranan Chosungnoen, Deputy Superintendent of the INTERPOL and Coordination Sub-division (Region 3), as a guest speaker.
2. "Utilization of INTERPOL's I-24/7 System,” delivered by Lieutenant Commander Thakollaphop Kaomoolkadi, Head of the Transnational Organized Crime Intelligence Center, and Ms. Chayanit Kitkhunnatham, Special Case Officer (Professional Level).
This lecture was organized following the DSI’s authorization to access INTERPOL's databases or the I-24/7 system. This system is instrumental in verifying information on alleged offenders in special cases, including suspects and other associates, both Thai and foreign nationals, in special cases or investigations under DSI’s authority. The system significantly supports the prevention and suppression of serious crimes that are special cases and major transnational crimes. Notably, the DSI is one of the only two agencies in Thailand, alongside the Royal Thai Police, that has been granted authorization to access and utilize the I-24/7 system.
However, the Director-General of the DSI has designated the Foreign Affairs and Transnational Crime Bureau as the central unit responsible for data verification via the I-24/7 system and as the primary liaison with the INTERPOL National Central Bureau Thailand (INTERPOL Bangkok) for access to the system.
