Citizens to help protect public order
The Azerbaijani parliament on Tuesday amended the
law on the police to allow the use of civil assistance in fighting
crime. The amendment will enable rank-and-file citizens to assist
the police in protecting public order. It will also prohibit the
employment of the mentally ill, drug addicts and intoxicated
persons.
During Soviet times, units called "people`s police" helped the government enforce law and order.
