In Danistarab law enforcement is mostly carried out by the National Police though the Bayt Al-Hisbah and various military organisations also have a role.
Types of law enforcement
The National Police are responsible for most policing. Their duties include protecting people and property, assisting tourists, enforcing most laws and investigating crimes such as theft, robbery, firearms offences, fraud, murder and rape as well as (in collaboration with the Hisbah) illicit drug smuggling (including the smuggling of alcohol), sex trafficking and acts of paedophilia.
The Bayt Al-Hisbah is responsible for:
Taking legal action against the public violation of shariah by Muslims.
Taking action against the sale of intoxicants on the street.
Take action against paedophilic behaviour or content.
Investigate and prevent procurement, prostitution and sexual slavery.
Take action against the spread of racist, sexist, ableist, obscene, indecent, blasphemous or seditious content especially when promoted to children.
In addition there the Army Police Corps, Maritime Military Police, Air Cavalry Police and the Space Cavalry Police each responsible for policing one or more branches of the military.
the Al-Harreh Danistarab Coast Guard is responsible for defence, policing and rescue operations on the coast of Al-Harreh Danistarab.
2020-2021 reforms
After the establishment of Al-Harreh Danistarab, reforms were made to the police. The Danistarabian Secret Police was abolished and police officers in S.W.A.T or riot unit were largely replaced with Sharifistani officers.
Police officers employed in traffic police, missing persons, child protection and ordinary patrol were mostly kept on the Police. The Bayt Al-Hisbah was established in 2021, incorporating veterans from the Islamist insurgency and uprising (on the Islamist side) along with ex-police officers from Sharifistan.
Special operations units
National Police Special Forces: a unit provided special operations capacity against terrorists, organised crime interests, hostage-takers and other such groups
High-Risk Suspects' Task Group: A unit of the Maritime Military Police responsible for the capture of criminals with special forces training.
Special Operations Regiment responsible for guarding major military, political and judicial leaders as well as (in theory) preventing military coups.
Controversy
The National Police are controversial both because of the ties many of them had to the regime of President Ahmed Danistarabi and because of their actions against loyalists and communists. They are also often accused of brutality because of their actions in certain public housing estates, which is often compared to police violence against people in Islamist areas from 1970-2020.
Bayt Al-Hisbah are accused of restricting freedom of speech and being "prying" though a spokeswoman of the organisation responded to the later accusation by saying most of their role concerns behaviour in public or with direct victims.
