ISLAMABAD – The Federal Judicial Academy (FJA) today successfully concluded a comprehensive four-day Professional Development Course for Assistant Directors (Legal) of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), Batch-II. The specialized training, which ran from July 08 to July 11, 2025, at the FJA premises in Islamabad, represented a significant effort to elevate the professional standards of the nation’s key legal investigators.

The course was strategically designed to enhance the legal, procedural, and analytical competencies of the participating FIA officials. Throughout the four days, the curriculum provided intensive coverage of advanced topics, including sophisticated case management techniques crucial for handling complex investigations, the protocols for meticulous evidence handling to ensure admissibility in court, the application of specialized cybercrime legislation in an increasingly digital landscape, and the development of effective prosecutorial strategies for successful conviction.
