7 сентября 2020
Criminal cases that have a wide public response, crime detection and cybercrime in Belarus were discussed at the meeting between the President and head of the Investigation Committee Ivan Noskevich.

The crime rate in Belarus has decreased compared to last year. The President was interested in the quality of the investigation and bringing high-profile criminal cases to court, which the Head of State keeps under personal control.

Efficiency is highly important in solving crimes in the field of high technologies. Cybercrime is developing at a rapid pace in Belarus. Every 8th crime is committed online in our country. 90 % of extortion and fraud cases went into the virtual space. This makes them more dangerous and makes both disclosure and fair retribution more difficult.
