Crimes committed in the 9 months of the current year in Baku were exposed again at a high rate as in each reporting period. There are successful indicators as a result. It is clear to everyone that this achievement in the fight against crime is not coincidental and it has been achieved thanks to the professional staff. Today, the Azerbaijani police properly perform the duty prescribed by law for the establishment of internal stability in the provision of public order and security in the fight against crime. The professionalism of the police officers plays a primary role in achieving success in this field. The police must be professional in order to fulfil his duties. He must be different from other people, for his intellectual level, as well as his physical capabilities. This is a kind of service necessity and a guiding requirement.

In this regard, physical trainings of the personal staff of Baku City Main Police Department are regularly held at the specified time. In an interview published in the newspaper of “Police”, it is emphasized that first of all, overall physical training - gymnastics and track and field athletics exercises are performed consistently at the specified times under the instructions of the trainer. Then the second part of the training begins. This is a special stage of the physical training that the police officers are trained in close combat and unarmed self-defence tricks.

The trainer demonstrates specific tricks to enhance the employees’ self-defence capabilities. He shows the rules of being ready for extreme situations together with the police officer imitating the person who is resisting, attacking and trying to force the police. Protection against cold and firearms and the methods of disarmament particularly draw attention.

This stage is the most exciting part of the training. Because the police often face a criminal, a suspect who does not obey his legal requirement and wants to resist. Such situations occur when catching a violent criminal or catching a hooligan on road. Therefore, the police must always keep themselves in shape according to his physical training level and the trainer police must explain to his colleagues how to be prepared for changing situations.

After the time for the lesson ends, additional conditions are created for the free physical training of the employees. This allows employees to use the material and technical resources of the Sports Society and engage in other types of sports they want.

Lessons held based on the “Guidance on organization of the work in special physical training of the personal staff” cover the whole Baku Police Garrison. That is, not only the personal staff of the Main Department, but also the employees of all police departments, sectors and divisions of Baku are involved in the physical trainings on the basis of the plan set.
