Conducting research and development in the area of internal security involves a response from the worlds of scienceand business to the needs of law enforcement and justice. The response in this instance was in accordance with the recommendationsof an interdepartmental team established as a result of errors made in the conduct of investigative activities related to the KrzysztofOlewnik abduction as well as to the study of files on abductions in Poland for the period 2000–2010. The panel’s report concludedthat there was a need to create a Centre for Abductions but that the creation of such a structure should be preceded by relevantresearch and development to produce a considered design. In this case, one can say that it was indeed a model for action, the effectof which is the current project “Developing and creating information management systems to meet the needs of the Centre forAbductions” (project number: OROB 0003 03 001), funded by the National Centre for Research and Development, with the aimof creating a fully functional structure with the necessary tools and technology. As a result of these initiatives, the qualityof investigative activities will significantly improve, which will directly contribute to increasing public confidence in law enforcementand increased security.
