PSP ignores questions from IGAI about mandatory identification of riot police

The IGAI has reported that the PSP has not implemented a recommendation for police officers to display visible identification while on duty. Despite attempts to obtain compliance information from the PSP over nearly three years, the IGAI has received no response. This lack of identification has been linked to unpunished serious offenses by special police units. The IGAI emphasizes that while the recommendation is not legally binding, visible identification is mandatory for all police officers. The Ministry of Internal Administration acknowledges the recommendation's implementation process but indicates that neither the PSP nor the GNR are fully complying. The inability to identify police officers undermines democratic accountability and public trust in institutions.
