Miachyslau Hryb: There Is Both Corruption And Violation Of Law In Police

The MIA has the flaws of the power.

Miachyslau Hryb, chairman of the Supreme Soviet of Belarus in 1994-1996, head of the Department of Internal Affairs of Vitsebsk region executive committee in the 1980s, said this to Radio Svaboda, commenting on the way the policemen falsify cases in Belarus:

- The police are the law enforcement body of the state, and the police will be the same as the authorities. If we're talking about Belarus, the police will be corrupt and violate the law, because it is also in the state itself. If the number of detainees in corruption cases has increased by a third, it will also have an effect on police officers. There can't be any other police in this country. I am sure.

And the "ticket quota system" is a dangerous thing that has been going on since the Soviet times. A lot of people opposed it. I used to oppose. As a lot of people understand that this practice should be abandoned. The planned approach in the police provokes unhealthy things.
