Under the agreement the US government would provide approximately $30 million to assist Pakistan in its fight against crime.
The assistance would support Pakistan in organizing law enforcement projects in the Federally-Administered Tribal Areas (Fata) and in taking up other important law enforcement reform projects. It would also help Pakistan in developing a national criminal database.
The three projects, to be funded through $30 million in US assistance — the Fata law enforcement project, the Criminal Information Database and AFIS project, and the Law Enforcement Reform Project — are integral components of the ongoing cooperative effort between the two countries to improve the overall law and order situation in Pakistan.
