BISSAU, Sept. 16 (Xinhua) -- The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) will use "all necessary means" to support Guinea-Bissau's judicial police in combating drug trafficking, the UN agency's representative in Guinea-Bissau Ana Cristina Andrade said here on Sunday.
The UNODC "will mobilize all partners to provide sufficient financial resources to support the efforts of Guinea-Bissau authorities in fighting drug trafficking and organized crime in the country," Andrade told the press after visiting the premises of the judicial police.
"The purpose of this visit is to show our willingness to support the judicial police, who have once again demonstrated their professionalism," she added, referring to the recent arrest of five people transporting 2.6 tons of cocaine aboard a plane at Bissau airport. ■
