Finland Central Criminal Police
The Central Criminal Police (Keskusrikospoliisi--KRP)
was
formed in 1954 to assist the country's other police
elements in
efforts against crime, particularly that of a serious or
deeply
rooted nature. A special concern of the Central Criminal
Police
was white collar crime. To carry out its mission, the
force had
advanced technical means at its disposal, and it
maintained
Finland's fingerprint and identification files. In
addition to
working with local police forces, the KRP operated
independently
throughout the country.
