Policijski odjel Guama (Chamorro:
Dipåttamenton Polisian Guåhan)
je agencija za provođenje zakona na SAD-ovoj teritoriji Guam. Ovlasti
odjela vrijede na cijelom teritoriju, osim luke, aerodroma i američkih
vojnih baza jer tamo postoje druge policijske organizacije. Interesantno
je da imaju ovlasti na stambenim dijelovima vojnih baza. Sjedište
policije je u gradu Barrigada, a organizirani su u četiri policijske
stanice. Ove policijske snage su organizirane 1949. godine. Prije toga
te su poslove obavljali pripadnici otočne garde pod komandom američke
mornarice. |

The Guam Police Department (Chamorro:
Dipåttamenton Polisian Guåhan) is the law enforcement
agency in the United States territory of Guam. The department has
jurisdiction across the entire territory, except for areas covered by
the port, airport and military bases, although the Guam Police
Department does have authority over military dependents on base, due to
the fact that civilians cannot be charged under the Uniform Code of
Military Justice. The police department is headquartered in the Guam
Police Department Building in the Tiyan area of Barrigada, and operates
four precincts. The Guam Police Department was created in 1949. Prior to
this, law enforcement on Guam was handled by the U.S. Navy administered
Guam Insular Guard and the civilian run Guam Insular Patrol Force. |

Teritorij Guam (na chamorru: Guåhan) je otok na zapadnom Tihom oceanu.
Organiziran je i neutjelovljeni teritorij SAD-a. Domorodačko
stanovništvo su Chamorro, koji su prvi nastanili Guam prije oko 3.500
godina. Glavni grad Guama je Hagåtña, bivša Agana. Guamovo gospodarstvo
se uglavnom oslanja na vojne baze SAD-a i na turizam (gosti iz Japana).
Američke vojne baze zauzimaju 1/3 cijele površine otoka. UN-ov odbor za
dekoloniziranje je uključio Guam na UN-ov popis nesamoupravnih
teritorija. |

Guam (Chamorro:
Guåhån) is an organized, unincorporated territory of the United
States in the western Pacific Ocean. It is one of five U.S. territories
with an established civilian government. Guam is listed as one of
seventeen Non-Self-Governing territories by the Special Committee on
Decolonization of the United Nations. The island's capital is Hagåtña
(formerly rendered Agana). Guam is the largest and southernmost of the
Mariana Islands. The Chamorros, Guam's indigenous people, first
inhabited the island approximately 4,000 years ago. Guam is the largest
island in Micronesia and was the only U.S.-held island in the region
before World War II. |
