Prime Minister Renews Commitment to War Against Drug Trafficking

Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth has reaffirmed the government’s commitment to a relentless battle against drug trafficking.

During a ceremony, a simulator known as the Ship in the Box was handed over by the head of the UNODC program in the Western region.

The simulator, funded by the US Department of State, will be used for training purposes to strengthen the country’s capacity in fighting drug trafficking.

The Mauritian government has promised to provide the necessary tools and expertise to law enforcement agencies involved in the fight against drug trafficking.

The government also highlighted its efforts to enhance maritime security in the Indian Ocean region, with support from the US Embassy and the UNODC.
