Law enforcement in Montenegro is primarily the responsibility of the Police Administration, a law enforcement agency under the authority of the Ministry of Interior and Public Administration. Headquartered in Podgorica, the Police Administration, with its 8,000 armed officers, provides security for a government that in recent years has been in fear of destabilisation.[1] To aid with these issues, the OSCE Mission to Montenegro began on 29 June 2006.[2]
It is subject to very high critic that the Law enforcement in Montenegro is far too dependent on the authorities, one of the conditions on its European integrations.
Organisation
All directorates of the Police Administration report to the Ministry of Interior and Public Administration. The police force is controlled legally by the country's Law on Police, and the Assembly of the Republic of Montenegro and the Montenegrin citizens can use this law to exert control over the police force. The Montenegro Civil Police has 5209 employees, of which 2473 are uniformed officers, 94 of these female.[2] The Police Academy is located in Danilovgrad, and provides both basic police education, and professional and specialized training.[2]
Aviation Unit
Montenegro's Civil Police Aviation Unit forms part of the Montenegro Government Aviation Unit, and purchased its first aircraft in 1972, with three more SA341 Gazelles transferred from the military air force in the 1990s[3] All helicopters are based at Golubovci Airport, Podgorica.[4]
