AUS Branch - Investigation of the Year
The Investigation of the Year award is open to any individual or team who has conducted an outstanding investigation involving the detection and prevention of auto crime. It is open to members of police forces, customs services, insurance investigators, private investigators, or anyone involved in vehicle theft investigations.
Submissions will be judged on their demonstration of any or all of the following criteria: innovative methodologies, application of best practice investigation techniques, the complexity of the investigation, and cooperation and involvement of multiple agencies to achieve a result in the fight against auto crime.
The investigation may involve the cooperation of international agencies but at least part of the investigation must have taken place in either Australia, New Zealand, or South East Asia during the last 3 years.
The 2024 award winners were announced at the 2024 Australasian Conference on 31st July.
