Provođenje reda i zakona u Boliviji je povjereno Nacionalnoj policiji ()
koja broji oko 31.000 pripadnika. Za razliku od većine ostalih zemalja
Latinske Amerike u Boliviji je policija odgovorna Vladi, a ne lokalnim
autoritetima. Iako je odvojena od vojske, policija često zana zatražiti
i pomoć vojske, pogotov kod većih nereda i demonstracija. |
Policijske snage se sastoje od slijedećih odjela: Glavne administracije
(Administración General), 5.000 pripadnika Nacionalne garde (Guardia
Nacional) koje još uvijek nazivaju karabinjerima (Carabineros),
nacionalne direkcije za istrage (Dirección de Investigaciones
Nacionales), Carinske policije (Policía de Aduana), Nacionalne prometne
policije (Servicio Nacional de Carreteras), koja je pod upravom
Ministarstva prometa i komunikacija, Vatrogasnog korpusa (Cuerpo de
Bomberos) koji se popunjava policajcima te Nacionalne policijske
akademije. |

Law enforcement in Bolivia is based on the 31,000-strong Cuerpo de
Policía Nacional (National Police Corps) responsible for internal
security and maintaining law and order. Unlike most Latin American
countries, the Bolivian police force always has been accountable to the
national government rather than to state or local officials. The 1950
Organic Law of Police and Carabiniers officially separated the police
from the military. Frequently, however, the national police call upon
the military for assistance in quelling riots and civil protests. |
The police corps consists of the General Administration (Administración
General) section; the 5,000-member paramilitary National Guard (Guardia
Nacional), still referred to as the Carabineros, which were reorganized
in 1976; the Directorate of National Investigations (Dirección de
Investigaciones Nacionales, DIN), the Customs Police (Policía de
Aduana); the Traffic Police (Policía de Tránsito); the National Highway
Service (Servicio Nacional de Carreteras), under the authority of the
Ministry of Transport and Communications; the Fire Corps (Cuerpo de
Bomberos), which was manned by police personnel; and the National Police
Academy. |
