YEREVAN, JULY 20, ARMENPRESS: The President of the Republic of Armenia
Serzh Sargsyan participated in Police Board July 20 session where
Police Departments and Regional Bodies activities' results covering
2012 first seminar were reported. As Presidential press office briefed
Armenpress the President came forth with some observations addressing
to the Board participants before the launch of the agenda.
President Sargsyan noted, "I am more than sure each of you,
Chief of Police inclusive, is high aware of the mission you have
undertaken voluntarily. Currently the work of the Policeman, without
exaggeration, is a mission which first of all refers to the senior
personnel. Neglecting this means not to accept the tasks and the
targets ahead of you. There can be no doubt about this.
We have worked hard to speed up reforms in this direction. I
personally followed your activities with daily frequency. During the
last stage I drew your attention to the Police exterior services,
taking into consideration the keeping of public order and in general
the functions assuring the direct contact with the public as well as
ensuring progress in revealing the committed crimes. I see progress
in these directions.
There is a progress in revealing the crimes, committed for ages as well
as crimes having a wide publicity. This is also an important sphere,
where you are on the right direction, yet you have to work harder to
become more professional in your job.
However, unresolved issues are more than achievements. The matter goes
on those unacceptable phenomena which have existed and still exist
in Police. I believe if you work harder and speeder the detection
of shortcomings will get easier and in most cases it will turn out
by itself.
The quality of criminal cases investigation remains problematic. Maybe
my opinion is subjective, yet I guess it is most vulnerable sector of
Police. Grave measures should be taken in this direction. I deem the
phenomena and activities casting doubt on the preservation of rights,
freedoms, honor and respect the dignity, equality before the law,
responsibility for proper implementation of the principles by the
Police Officers of the particular department must be excluded. I
want everybody to listen, I declare, "There is not a single person
who cancan not be punished in our country. The one committed crime
must bear responsibility. This is our approach.
It is necessary to continue the progress we have already registered
and undertake the solution of the problems in other branches. I wish
any of you to come to work with a feeling to change something for the
better. If the person does not enjoy what he does, he cannot have
success. I really hope sooner each of you will get engaged to your
everyday routine with a pleasure, and reportedly any positive change
will make you became gratified. We need such stance".
