• Comparing crime rates: the international crime (Victim) survey, the European Sourcebook of crime and criminal justice statistics, and Interpol statistics, Aebi, M. F., Killias, M., & Tavares, C. (2002). International Journal of Comparative Criminology, 2(1), 22-37. The author of this article found that the International Crime Survey is related to the European Sourcebook of Criminal Justice Statistics in a similar offense. Interpol data, on the other hand, are weakly correlated with Sourcebook and ICVS. For a long time, comparative criminology has had a lot of discrepancies mainly because of the lack of international criminal data. The article looks at several efforts that have been made to improve ways of sharing data on criminals internationally. One thing that is argued to increase the validity of Sourcebook project is the comparative validity of police data which is thought to eliminate devastating errors. In offenses where the police statement is uncertain or inconsistent survey date may remain the most valid for cross-section analysis.
• The accountability of transnational policing institutions: The strange case of Interpol, Sheptycki, J. (2004). Canadian Journal of Law & Society/La Revue Canadienne Droit et Socit, 19(1), 107-134. Accountability is an important factor for any public facility. A question of who the Interpol is accountable to is a question many people ask. Across the world, this unit is the most recognized international police unit. In developed countries, all police units have legally defined measures that ensure that they are accountable to all their actions. The law is not clear on how most international agencies like the Interpol will remain accountable; however, they are guided by the laws of sovereignly bound nations. The article looks at modus operandi, a narrative that the Interpols activities can potentially become hot political contestation between member countries. It tries to illustrate the accountability framework of the Interpol by looking at the historically questionable status of Intergovernmental Organization. It goes ahead to illustrate. Interpols accountability can be understood by understanding Formal and Informal, internal and external accountability mechanism. Finally, it is vital for international agencies to come up and maintain constitutional accountability issues.

(2016). Forensic science international, 263, 92-100. Here the author scrutinizes a survey on speaker identification conducted in some of Interpols member countries. The survey used questionnaires to collect data. The survey was intended for all member countries, however, only 91 of these countries responded. Of all the participants, 44 use speaker identification in their countries. Half of those countries which had speaker identification were from Europe. Twenty-eight states responded that they had audio recordings in their database.
