On 23 March 2012, the thirty fifth meeting of the Incident Prevention and Response Mechanism (IPRM), chaired by the United Nations, was held in Gali.
Information session on the initiative of the Chair was held for the first time in the framework of the IPRM. The United Nations expert provided information on possibilities of local cooperation in the fight against crime.
The participants addressed the deterioration of security situation on the ground and followed up on some detention cases discussed at the previous meetings. They exchanged information on new cases, which had taken place since the previous IPRM, including killings, a shooting incident and a case of a missing person.
The meeting took place in a businesslike atmosphere with all participants engaging in the discussions in a professional manner.
It was agreed that the next meeting of the IPRM would take place in Gali on 24 April 2012.
