From 27 to 31 October 2014, the Asset Recovery Inter-Agency Network of South Africa (ARINSA), the Financial Intelligence Unit of Lesotho and the International Center of Asset Recovery (ICAR) conducted a joint Workshop for Prosecutors and Investigators on Proceeds of Crime and Money Laundering in Tayetayeneng, Lesotho.

These included applying search warrants to obtain financial documents; preparing production orders, restraining orders and requests for mutual legal assistance; drafting indictments in money laundering cases, as well as developing legal arguments for the preparation of criminal and civil forfeiture/confiscation orders and effecting their enforcement. Some 60 participants from a number of government agencies of Lesotho attended the training workshop.
