The director of the Federal Office of Police (Fedpol), Nicoletta della Valle, is stepping down on January 31, 2025. The Federal Council has approved the 62-year-old’s resignation. The successor will be decided later.
Della Valle has been heading Fedpol for almost ten years. It was very important to her to turn the Federal Office into a police force, as the Federal Council wrote in a statement. In the fight against terrorist threats and organized crime, it relied heavily on intensive cooperation with Swiss and foreign partner authorities. “The Federal Council thanks Nicoletta della Valle for her work and her commitment to the safety of the Swiss population,” the statement said.
“Extraordinary performance”
According to the Federal Council, the position will soon be advertised publicly. The Federal Council praised Ms. della Valle’s “tireless” commitment. The Federal Council writes that it has made an extraordinary contribution to combating serious crime and organized crime and to improving criminal prosecution.
The position will be advertised shortly.
