Abstract
The article describes statistical comparisons that give a realistic picture of development trends in the field of general police activities. Based on the comparison of data of the years 2009 to 2018 in the offenses section, it is possible to note overall decreasing tendencies, apart from offenses against road and traffic safety. The article describes the direction of development of the general police and their basic functions, among which we find the protection of the public order in villages. It can be said that the activity and focus of the general police depend on the security situation of the given region, as well as on the priorities of the designated municipal authorities with the established municipal police. The Municipal Police is an order unit operating in the provision of public order in the city, protecting the environment in the city, and performing the tasks resulting from the generally binding regulations of the city, the resolutions of the municipal council, and the decision of the mayor. The activity of the municipal police is governed by its chief. The city police chief is appointed and dismissed by the city council on the proposal of the mayor. The city may also define other tasks for the municipal police if specific laws so provide. The city council determines the organization, the wages and the scope of technical means of the municipal police, taking into account the scope of their tasks. The Municipal policers are employees of the Municipal Police which is the employee of the city. They have the status of public officials when performing tasks. The status, roles, organizational structure, mutual relations, relations with state administration bodies and other organizations are regulated by a special law, organizational regulations of the city, the working orders of the city and the municipal police, and generally binding regulation of the city.
