THE Commissioner of Police, Mr Li Kwan-ha, accompanied by the Deputy Director of Crime, Mr Tsang Yam-pui, will attend an annual Interpol Liaison meeting in Beijing.

The Beijing trip was disclosed by China's Minister of Public Security, Mr Tao Siju, yesterday, although a date has not yet been announced.

Mr Li and Mr Tsang are expected to discuss with their Chinese counterparts further co-operation to have wanted criminals hiding on the mainland returned to Hongkong for trial.

The pair returned last night after attending the 15th Annual International Asian Organised Crime Conference in Las Vegas.

At the conference, police chiefs from around the world discussed how international co-operation among law enforcement agencies could be used to combat the increasing worldwide reach of criminal organisations.
