State Bureau of Investigations (SBI)

The State Bureau of Investigations (SBI) is a state-level law enforcement agency responsible for supporting local police and sheriff's offices with specialized investigative services. It handles complex or high-profile cases, such as cybercrime, drug trafficking, and homicides, and often conducts criminal investigations, forensic analysis, and crime scene processing. The SBI also provides training, resources, and coordination across jurisdictions to ensure consistent enforcement of laws and effective crime-solving. Essentially, it serves as a statewide resource to assist and strengthen criminal investigations beyond the capabilities of individual local agencies.
