The International Cooperation and Anti-Terrorism Unit is a specialized section within the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) that handles mutual legal assistance requests, extraditions, acts of terrorism, and related offences. It facilitates collaboration between Zimbabwe's law enforcement agencies and foreign jurisdictions in gathering evidence and extraditing fugitives.

The Unit supports inter-state cooperation and mutual legal assistance among judicial and law enforcement agencies to end impunity for international crimes such as corruption, money laundering, terrorism, and asset recovery. These efforts align with the United Nations Convention Against Transnational Organized Crime.

In addition to prosecution, the Unit provides legal advice in prosecutor-guided investigations to enhance investigative practices in terrorism-related cases. Terrorism remains a major threat to humanity and peace at national, regional, and international levels. This Unit ensures that acts of terrorism are prosecuted and eradicated in Zimbabwe.

Given the complexity of terrorism and related offences, the Unit offers legal guidance to law enforcement agencies and facilitates international cooperation. No single country can adequately prosecute these crimes alone — the Unit ensures Zimbabwe is connected, prepared, and constitutionally equipped to respond.
