28-09-2012 17:42:34 | Armenia | Human Rights
The new official website of the Armenian police, which was developed
with the support of the OSCE Office in Yerevan, was launched on 28
September 2012.
The updated website, www.police.am, aims to provide greater
transparency about the work of the police and enhance police-citizen
interaction. The website provides a comprehensive overview of daily
police activities, the police budget, vacancy announcements and
information about police structures, reforms and the new police
education system, as well as police-run TV programmes, newspaper and
radio.
The website provides a map of Armenian police district departments
with relevant information. Citizens will be able to find information
about their community policing officers as well as access various
forms to be filled out. A hotline number makes it possible to promptly
inform the police of problems that citizens might encounter while the
`Support to citizens' section of the website enables citizens to
report violations and misconduct of police officers to the police
internal oversight body. It also provides comprehensive
security-related information.
The OSCE Office in Yerevan has assisted the Armenian Police in
introducing community policing, reforms in police education and
effective public order management.
