It is hoped an agreement between police in Bradford and Pakistan could improve community relations in the city and help prevent crime.
Officers from Bradford District Community Safety paid a visit to Mirpur, in the Kashmir region, and drew up the informal agreement with Pakistani police.
The document recognises the will of the two forces to co-operate wherever possible. West Yorkshire Police hopes the development could help put an end to people trying to evade the law in one country by fleeing to stay with relatives in the other.
The visit was part of a larger trip to India and Pakistan which included delegates such as the Lord Mayor of Bradford Choudhary Rangzeb and local business leaders and academics.
