Doha: A five-day workshop on behavioural skills for investigators started at Capital Security Department yesterday.
Speaking on ‘Ethical Model of a Policeman’, Brigadier Khalifa Abdullah Al Noaimi, Director- General, General Directorate of Criminal Investigations, said, “A police officer should be responsible in his dealings with the public. He should know that he is not only representing himself as an officer, but also the Ministry of Interior and is entrusted to protect security, safety and dignity of every member of society.”
Brig. Salim Saqr Al Meraikhi, Director, Legal Affairs Department, spoke on the qualities that must be shown by the investigating officer. He said the investigator being the first to receive a criminal case, has the primary role in ascertaining facts and circumstances and therefore holds a leading role in gathering evidence.
Lt. Colonel Nasser Misfir Al Qahtani, Head, Al Sadd Police Division, said the workshop is organised by the division and the Training Section of Human Resource Department. QNA
