The Imperial Office of Criminal Investigations, also simply known as IOCI or OCI, was a law enforcement agency of the Galactic Empire, responsible for investigating and fighting criminal activities such as the Black Sun crime syndicate.

It worked together with other Imperial organizations like Imperial Intelligence and the Imperial Army or local law enforcement agencies, but also employed highly skilled independent agents for delicate jobs.

HistoryEdit

The IOCI was formed in 19 BBY from the Republic Office of Criminal Investigations.

During the Imperial era the IOCI administered the Sector Rangers through their Central Command. The IOCI was answerable to the Justice branch of the Coalition for Progress, part of COMPNOR.

In 36:10, the TriNebulon News reporter, Andor Javin, reported to the IOCI his theory relating the smuggler Platt Okeefe with Cynabar. However they took little notice of him.

At the behest of Moff Landric the IOCI assigned Inspector Zanza Gata in the same month to bring the art thief known only as the "Tombat" to justice. IOCI Director Jacen Corbit introduced the Special Enforcement Officer to a packed room of reporters in a dramatic press conference on Danteel. ^[2]
