Azerbaijan, Baku, May 26 / Trend , А.Huseynbala /
Azerbaijani Parliament adopted amendments to the Law On Police on May 26.
The amendment to article 10 envisages assistance to police officials and local governments, as well as individuals.
"The state agencies and local governments should help police in carrying out its duties. Everyone can help the police in carrying out its responsibilities. The police can not force anyone to cooperate to fulfill the mandates entrusted on it," the draft says.
Anyone who has information on prepared or committed crime must report to the police, said the paper.
"In some circumstances, certain laws of Azerbaijan may lead to accusation for not giving information available. According to certain law of Azerbaijan, while involving members of the state agencies, who are not police officers, in the work to ensure public order and security, the responsibility of police are entrusted on them, the draft says.
