Crime Interrupted explores some of the biggest and most challenging cases handled by the AFP, Australia’s national policing agency.
Presented by Casefile, the series covers cases including human trafficking, counter-terrorism operations, international kidnappings and more. You will hear from the AFP officers who investigated these crimes, as well as members from domestic and international partners.
Six new episodes will be released monthly from April 2023.

Operation Collage
When intel was received that a boat with nearly half a tonne of cocaine was headed toward Australian waters, the AFP, Customs, and state police monitored the journey and the transference of drugs to a smaller vessel. What followed was a perilous five-day boat chase through the high seas.

Operation Birks
An urgent cybersecurity fraud case landed on the desk of AFP investigators; a syndicate was stealing money from Australian superannuation and share trading accounts. In a race against time to stop millions of dollars in theft, the team had to unravel a complex web of false accounts to find how the syndicate was exploiting vulnerabilities in the system. Burner phones and a kebab order led them to a surprisingly young culprit.

Operation Boscobel
When the AFP joined a multi-agency taskforce to investigate security and vulnerabilities on the waterfront, they had no idea they would discover a huge national fraud involving tens of millions of dollars. From off-the-book payments to clandestine collections of money in white envelopes, Operation Boscobel investigators were there to document it all. A dedicated team put together literally a truck-load of evidence. In the wake of this, the six main players didn’t stand a chance in court.

Operation Blare
When the AFP got intel on a case of foreign bribery, it wasn’t historic as they usually were; it was happening right then. Operation Blare was formed to stop it and send a message to Australian businesses – pay bribes at your own risk.

Operation Caulis
When the Australian Education Department noticed huge fortnightly claims for childcare under their fully-subsidised grandparent scheme, they suspected fraud and called in the AFP. The scheme they uncovered was beyond belief.

Customer Reviews
Are you finished, should I unsubscribe?
You should at least post a short podcast letting us know if we should wait for new episodes or if this was a limited edition series. It feels rude. I really enjoyed the episodes I listened to
All 6 done — Podcast Over???
What a wonderful & fascinating — 6 episodes of the Podcast is this set of episodes from April to October of 2023!
[The next question/comment seems like it ought be this podcast: done & OVER??
Or: is it: done &…on hold? Or OVER… ’TILL WHAT/WHEN?
You MAY THINK OF THESE AS PRIVATE PRODUCTION CONCERNS; but it was unclear after the stoppage of the original set of episodes that were also very good but seemed to just end without explanation
This is why I give you 4 stars rather than 5. For another Podcast Family without the high quality background & high quality individual episodes as this, the lack of unclear future plans might’ve lead to a 3-star rating, but the episodes are just too good!
So, please @ least put out a message like spoken word & the length - no longer than a trailer is necessary to explain what’s happening now. Maybe then I could re-rate the podcast with a 5-star review which would have been much more appropriate if there was an idea about where this was going or NOT going.
Best host ever
