• Placement: physical disposal of money by moving funds from direct association with a crime and putting it in the financial system. Criminals achieve this by sometimes moving a small amount at times to avoid raising suspicion. It may also involve bank complicity.
• Layering involves the creation of false documents traits, conversion of cash into monetary instruments and the conversion of tangibles assets obtained by means of cash purchases. The use of electronic methods to facilitate the layering process is increasing nowadays.
• Integration: is the final stage at which the money is integrated into the legitimate economy and financial system. The funds are becoming available again to criminals with its occupational and geographical origins hidden from view.

WAY FORWARD
![Page 37: DRUG ABUSE AND TRAFFICKING. Geo-Political Situation](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649f115503460f94c23575/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
• Re-enforcing of the Anti-Narcotic Unit (C.I.D) specifically charged with handling drug crimes, the use of sniffer dogs and checking at entry points are some of the measures in place to combat such crime;
• Many trainings on drugs related crime investigation within our country and abroad.
Capacity building
![Page 38: DRUG ABUSE AND TRAFFICKING. Geo-Political Situation](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649f115503460f94c23575/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
• As prescribed by articles 272-277 of Rwanda Criminal Code, drug trade and consumption are sanctioned with a maximum of three months to five years jail and a fine of 250,000 Frw or either of the penalties.
Legal issues
![Page 39: DRUG ABUSE AND TRAFFICKING. Geo-Political Situation](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649f115503460f94c23575/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
More attention in Crime Reduction philosophy (Policy and Laws)
The proactive method of investigation should be enhanced through CIMIC & Community Policing philosophy in order to reduce all activities related to drug trafficking
Trainings for the RDF & RNP in the field of narcotics to bring about multiplier effect
![Page 40: DRUG ABUSE AND TRAFFICKING. Geo-Political Situation](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649f115503460f94c23575/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
To enhance youth sensitization and general population (The future of our Country)
Command and control on our staff is recommended as some of them are involved in those crimes (Users…);
Probably our enemy may use drug trafficking to disturb our system
![Page 41: DRUG ABUSE AND TRAFFICKING. Geo-Political Situation](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649f115503460f94c23575/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Security and Policy approaches have both to be used in order to deal effectively with Drug Trafficking
To enhance the international co-operation in the field of investigations
To enhance use of sniffer dogs
![Page 42: DRUG ABUSE AND TRAFFICKING. Geo-Political Situation](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649f115503460f94c23575/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
• Drug trafficking is considered to be the first lucrative business for criminals which increases the threat to law enforcers worldwide (Wright, A. 2008)
• Drug Trafficking represents 8% of the total international trade: 400 billions $ (Bruce Zagaris).
• Illicit drug use and heavy drinking can jeopardize mission readiness, impair work performance and put lives at risk (Bray and Sanchez).
