The Criminal Research and Training Center, affiliated with the Attorney General’s Office, announced “the organization of the second international conference on “Combating the Scourge of Corruption” in the capital, Tripoli, on the ninth and tenth of next December.”
The Attorney General’s Office said in a statement: “The conference comes within the plan of the Criminal Research and Training Center attached to the Attorney General’s Office, to carry out its duty in serving the community, as it is the development arm of the Public Prosecution Authority in its quest to develop the justice system, enforce the law, and protect human rights.”
He pointed out that “the center is determined to organize its second international conference, and has dedicated it to mobilizing ideas, uniting efforts, and combining determinations that contribute to suppressing a phenomenon whose causes are many, whose types are numerous, and whose forms have increased, and which has become a source of concern for the wheel of development in society, its security, stability, and justice; it is the scourge of corruption.”
He added that “corruption destroys the values and ethics of society, inhibits the effectiveness of the rule of law, is anti-human rights and hinders the implementation of development plans. It is a scourge that exhausts countries, drains their resources, and deepens their various crises. It erodes the foundations of their stability and exposes their peace and societal harmony to danger. It has become a duty for every country and the international community, with its various institutions and diverse activities, to suppress this scourge.”
He explained that “the conference’s axes are represented in the constitutional foundation for preventing and combating corruption, and their institutional structure, which is the first axis, and the second is the methods of preventing corruption, and its measures in the public and private sectors “examination, evaluation, harmonization, development.”
He pointed out that “the third axis is represented in the specificities of corruption crimes: prevention, criminalization, punishment, and the fourth is strengthening the procedures for uncovering corruption crimes and prosecuting their perpetrators.”
He explained that “the fifth axis represented the effects of the rapid growth of technological development: “employment; challenges; problems; risks; solutions”, and finally the sixth axis was the specificity of preventing corruption and confronting it in transitional stages.”
