Interpol has compiled a database of 6,000 suspected terrorists and 4 million stolen travel documents that could be used in terror activities, Interpol Secretary General Ronald Noble told law enforcement officials Tuesday. His comments came at the start of a weeklong meeting of police officials from around the world at this Mexican resort, a gathering aimed at finding ways to hunt down international terrorists and halt their attacks. Speaking to representatives of at least 175 of Interpol's 181 member countries, Interpol President Jesus Espigares said terrorism was the main concern of both security services and private citizens around the world because of the "disastrous effects that indiscriminate attacks cause. We must exploit all of our available resources and reduce the areas where the terrorists hide." |
