Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures (TPIMs)

Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures (TPIMs) are legal tools used by authorities to prevent serious terrorist activities. They allow for restrictions on individuals suspected of involvement in terrorism but who lack sufficient evidence for criminal charges. These measures can include restrictions on movement, communication, or association, and are intended to mitigate threats while respecting legal rights. TPIMs are monitored closely and reviewed periodically to balance national security with individual freedoms, acting as a preventative approach rather than punitive action.
