    Deputy Interior Minister says Armenia has special role in combating crime in
    Russia

    At a meeting between the Russian Interior Ministry and the Armenian police
    department, Deputy Interior Minister Rashid Nurgaliev said that Armenia
    played a special role in domestic law enforcement in Russia.

    "In handling issues of domestic law enforcement, it is important today for
    Russia to have the backing and active involvement of fraternal states, among
    which Armenia has a special role," Mr. Nurgaliev said.

    He said that the issues were, above all, the fight against terrorism, drug
    trafficking and illegal immigration, the human trade, racketeering and
    economic crime.

    Mr. Nurgaliev also proposed broadening the list of additional steps that
    Russian and Armenian law enforcement agencies should take.

    Specifically, additional protection for bilateral investment projects,
    increased interaction in the planning and implementation of antiterrorism
    actions and ensuring the security of important facilities, Mr. Nurgaliev
    said.

    He also proposed considering pressing problems and formulating solutions at
    the bilateral meeting of the heads of the ministerial divisions this fall.

    "It would be expedient to consider matters of immigration, the creation of
    practical mechanisms to monitor the movement of capital and the development
    of immediate contacts between the information and analytical divisions of
    the two agencies," Mr. Nurgaliev said.

    Armenian police chief Aik Arutyunyan said that over five months in 2004, the
    Russian law enforcement agencies had detained and extradited 23 criminals to
    Armenia.

    In 2003, the Russian law enforcement agencies detained and extradited 48
    people wanted by Armenian law enforcement agencies, Mr. Arutyunyan said.

    In 2003, the Armenian police established the guilt of and detained 62
    individuals wanted by Russian law enforcement agencies. Over five months of
    this year, the Armenian police found and detained 22 people wanted by the
    Russian Interior Ministry, the Armenian police chief said.
