Kia ora, I’m Andrew Coster, the commissioner of New Zealand Police.

Today we announced our involvement in a large disruption of organized crime in the form of one of the largest takedowns of an organized crime network: Operation Trojan Shield.

I’m very proud of the work that our police staff have done in this major international operation. It reflects the importance of our partnerships internationally, particularly with organizations like the FBI, AFP, Europol, and many others.

The operation has been a tremendous success, and it underscores the importance of our relationships to disrupt organized crime, which this operation has achieved in a significant way.
