Episode Description

The world of a private investigator has expanded dramatically over the last twenty years. It is not unusual to see a request for assistance in a foreign country. What used to be a luxury, networking with investigators across the globe is now a necessity. Employees of multi-national corporations are often transferred to foreign shores; therefore people are highly mobile. Where it is a background investigation for employment, genealogical research, a fraud case, or a parental abduction, it is essential today to have contacts around the world. Asian private investigator and security professional, Pawanjit Ahluwalia with offices in India, the Middle East, and Dubai will discuss the importance of developing your global contact list.
