Australian federal police will visit South Korea so as to set up final security plan to ensure 50 athletes safety during 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics.


The Australian Federal Police will join Australian Olympic committee’s trip to South Korea. The AFP will attend a security briefing from Games organisers and finalise the security plan for 50 Australian athletes participating in 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics.
