Organised crime groups' influence increasing: Jurgen Stock_我的网站

A |     An off-duty pilot is charged with 83 counts of attempted murder after he allegedly tried to shut off the engines by pulling the fire extinguisher handles on an Alaska Airlines flight, according to officials.The plane was scheduled to fly from Everett, Washington, to San Francisco before it diverted late Sunday to Portland after a "credible security threat related to an authorized occupant in the flight deck jump seat," the airline confirmed to ABC News.The suspect allegedly tried to pull the fire extinguisher handles on the engines, preliminary information obtained by investigators indicated, according to a federal official briefed on the probe. The suspect was overwhelmed by flight crew and subdued and then handcuffed to a seat, the federal official told ABC News.The suspect, Joseph David Emerson, was taken into custody, the Port of Portland confirmed. Emerson is charged with 83 counts of attempted murder, according to the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office. He is also facing 83 counts of reckless endangerment, a misdemeanor, and one felony count of endangering an aircraft.The suspect was en route to San Francisco, where he was scheduled to be on a flight crew of a 737, the official said.Alaska Airlines said the off-duty pilot was sitting in the flight deck jump seat -- which is in the cockpit -- and "unsuccessfully attempted to disrupt the operation of the engines."The captain and first officer "quickly responded," Alaska said, adding engine power was not lost and the crew secured the aircraft without incident.There were 80 passengers and four crew members on the flight, according to Alaska.Passenger Aubrey Gavello told ABC News, "We didn't know anything was happening until the flight attendant got on the loudspeaker and made an announcement that there was an emergency situation and the plane needed to land immediately. … About 15 minutes later, she got back on and said that there was a medical emergency."Passenger Alex Wood said the pilot announced that "there was a disturbance in the cockpit."Gavello said she heard a flight attendant tell the suspect, "We're going to be fine, it's OK, we'll get you off the plane.""So I really thought it was a serious medical emergency," she said.Wood added, "It was very professional, handled very calmly, and we didn't really know what was going on until we landed."Once the plane landed, Wood said police went to the back of the plane and escorted a handcuffed man off the plane. He noted that the suspect "was wearing a lanyard, a sweater. Looked like an airline employee."Gavello said, "After we did land and the gentleman was escorted off, the flight attendant got back on the speaker and said, plain and simple, 'He had a mental breakdown. We needed to get him off the plane immediately.'"The Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement to carriers that the incident is "not connected in any way shape or form to current world events."The event is being investigated by law enforcement, the airline said. The FBI confirmed it is looking into the incident and "can assure the traveling public there is no continuing threat related to this incident."Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg said in a statement, "I am grateful for the professional flight crew and air traffic controllers who stepped up to guide this plane safely to Portland. FAA supports law enforcement in their response and will be focused on any safety considerations for the future that emerge from investigations."The pilots union Air Line Pilots Association, International in a statement praised the pilots and crew who safely landed the plane and said it's fully cooperating with authorities.The union added, "The airline pilot profession in North America is one of the most highly vetted and scrutinized careers, and for good reason. For decades, the United States has pioneered a proactive approach to improving aviation safety and maintaining a healthy work environment for pilots. In addition, U.S. pilots are continuously evaluated throughout their careers through training, medical exams, crew resource management, and programs such as the Line Operations Safety Audit, as well as by the airline and during random flight checks by the Federal Aviation Administration."。    New Delhi, Oct 17 (UNI) The most significant trends is the increasing influence of organised crime groups both in the physical world with associated increased violence, and the virtual world with cybercrime causing a massive economic and social impact on governments, businesses and individuals worldwide, said Jurgen Stock, Secretary General, Interpol.



Stock, at a Press Conference held at Pragati Maidan in New Delhi on Monday, said organised crime networks are making billions of dollars, and the fact that less than one percent of global illicit financial flows are intercepted and recovered – or rather, nearly 99 per cent of stolen assets remain in criminal hands - should be of greater concern to everyone".



Combined with estimates of the global cost of cybercrime which is expected to reach 10.5 trillion US dollars by 2025, brings investigative agencies to the basics of policing, it added.



“Over the coming days, we will be addressing a range of global security issues and how these can be addressed through the unique platform which is INTERPOL,” said Stock.



INTERPOL has developed its global stop-payment mechanism, the Anti-Money Laundering Rapid Response Protocol, which in the past 10 months alone has helped member countries recover more than 60 million dollars in criminal proceeds from cyber enabled fraud, he said.



Global Crime Trend Report highlighted the massive increase in online child sexual exploitation and abuse, figures which are only set to increase, he added.





The cybercrime and online child abuse are significantly under reported, often because victims are ashamed or in cases of fraud, embarrassed, which means that the figures we see are just the tip of the iceberg, Stock said.



Police around the world are overwhelmed with data, and too often they do not have the capacity to deal with the volume of cases – and here INTERPOL is uniquely placed to provide the support they need.



Today, with the click of a button, police anywhere in the world can instantly check against INTERPOL’s 19 global databases containing 126 million records including DNA profiles and facial recognition images. Databases are checked more than 20 million times each day – which equates to around 250 searches per second, the statement stated.



International Child Sexual Exploitation database helps investigators around the world identify an average of seven child abuse victims – every single day.



INTERPOL is uniquely positioned to help countries address these crime threats, as well as locate and arrest the criminals behind them, notably through Red Notices.



A Red Notice is not an international arrest warrant, and INTERPOL cannot force any member country to arrest an individual who is the subject of a Red Notice.



It is not for INTERPOL to judge the merit of a case or a decision taken by national courts – that is a sovereign matter.



The 90th General Assembly of INTERPOL will be held from October 18 to 21. The meeting will be attended by delegations from 195 INTERPOL member countries comprising Ministers, Police Chiefs of countries, Heads of National Central Bureaus and Senior police officers. The General Assembly is INTERPOL’s supreme governing body and meets once a year to take key decisions related to its functioning.
