Kenya has nominated Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) Amin Mohammed as the candidate for the INTERPOL Executive Committee elections.
The elections are set to be held on the 93rd session of the INTERPOL General Assembly, which is expected to take place in Marrakech, Morocco, from November 24 to 27, 2025.
His candidacy was announced by Interior CS Kipchumba Murkomen, who urged member states of the Regional Centre for Small Arms and Light Weapons (RECSA) to support Kenya’s bid.
“Kenya’s win will provide an opportunity to champion Africa’s perspectives and priorities at the highest level of global policing”, CS Murkomen said.
INTERPOL is the International Criminal Police Organisation and the world’s largest police cooperation body, connecting law enforcement agencies in 196 member countries to combat transnational crime and terrorism.
The Executive Committee is a 13-member body that includes the President, three Vice-Presidents and nine delegates representing for global regions, which are Africa, the Americas, Asia and Europe.
The committee meets three times a year and plays a role in guiding the organisation’s policies and programs.
