First World War
During the First World War, police structures and national gendarmerie were fragmented and profiled according to invading force models (Austro-Hungarian, French, Italian, etc.). In the Autonomous Province of Korça, the police prefecture and police offices were established in the regions.
Period of monarchy
Following the Congress of Lushnja (1920-1924), there were new organization and developments in the field of police. In October 1920, the new general police department (210 people) was approved. As a result of the organic completion of the police, the Rules on the Main Terms for Commissars, Commissaries and Police came out. For the first time, police stations and gendarmerie were created. In 1921, the palace police in Parliament (or the security police of government residencies and high personalities) was established. An important moment in the history of the Police is the drafting of the Police Duties in February 1921. After the June Revolution, the Noli Government took some measures to organize the police. In August 1924, the circular for the organization of the police staff was published, and in September of that year the decision of the central committee of the ministry on the organization of police personnel came into force. At this time the police detective service was first created for the first time. Toward the fall of Fan Noli, ie 1925-1938, is characterized by the progressive development of police and gendarmerie. Modern Western elements are introduced in the area of police and gendarmerie structures and legislation. During this period, for the first time, several types of police were created: P. Municipal (1928), P. Rural (1929), P. Border (1930), P. Public Security (1938), Royal Guardian Boundary (1939) , City Gendarmerie (with the attributes of urban police), etc.
World War II Period
During the Second World War, police and gendarmerie structures were mostly assimilated and profiled according to the interests of invading states. During the two invasions, police were integrated into military structures labeled the Armed Police Corps.
In 1943, in the liberated areas, partisan structures for maintaining public order and peace were created: District Commands, Commands of the Country and Volunteer Guards. In November 1944, their reshuffle was named by the People's Defense Forces. According to the time records, these forces have played an active role in maintaining the order of public peace in the liberated areas.
Post-War Period II
After the Second World War, organization and structuring of the police was done according to eastern models. On May 14, 1945, the reorganization of the military structures of law enforcement was established and the People's Police was established. During the years 1945-1990, there have been some changes in the field of police organization and structuring. Police have contributed to the maintenance of public peace and order and the protection of individual and property life.
The Democracy Period
Since 1991, following the introduction of Albania in the path of democratic processes, there have been some important changes in the field of organizing and restructuring the Albanian Police. In 1991, with the establishment of the Ministry of Public Order, the police were given the status of an institution with them, unlike what was before. In a short time, rapid changes were made to the organizational and legal character of the police as well as its opening to the world.
During 1992-96, based on the government program, but without drafting concrete strategies, police reform was developed. This process involved the area of police restructuring at all levels, the renewal of police personnel, the extension of the legal framework and its opening up to the world's counterpart institutions and international organizations. Initially, this process had a positive impact on the fact that chaos, anarchy, and public order and tranquility took place within a short time. But besides the positive results that have been achieved, there are also many problems related to structure instability, low staff recruitment standards, low level of professionalism, police clearance of unauthorized rallies, corruption displays etc. which gave strong impetus during the riots from January to March 1997.
During the riots in January-March 1997, 10 police commissariats were completely destroyed and destroyed, while the rest suffered major damage, 80% of the police and police cars were stolen, and dozens of police officers were killed and injured. in June 1997, work began on the resumption and reorganization of the police at all levels. Structures were created to deal directly with the fight against terrorism, terrorism, organized crime, disarmament. The previous structures paralyzed against crime were reactivated. Within a relatively short time, the police were able to function, to unblock national strategic roads from criminal gangs, to establish public peace and order, to disarm a part of the population, and to put in place the public administration. Since May 1997, an important contributor to the re-establishment and reorganization of Albanian police has been provided and still provided by the Western European Union (MAP) police mission. With the suggestion of this mission, the Police Directorates of Prefectures (Districts) were established.
This mission has made a great contribution also in the field of qualification and reform of the Albanian police. For this mission, since 1997 our ICITAP (USA), INTERFORCE (Italy) operates under our police force. From 1997 to 2000, these missions have qualified over 4000 police officers. The INTERFORCE mission has provided considerable assistance in the creation and provision of Eagle's operative and self-winding halls. Reforms in the State Police initiated by the Government Decision no. 384, dated 28 July 1999, constitutes a very important moment for the future of the police. The basic document drafted in 1999-2000 is called the Police Reform Strategy. This Strategy is medium-term (2000-2003) and its objectives are: to create a modern legal and subordinate infrastructure; construction of efficient police structures; setting new standards for recruitment, training and qualification; strengthening police relations with the community of administration; co-operation with the outside and raising the standards of police work and technology.
The main philosophy The reform is the transformation of the police from a military structure into a state-run civil service institution serving the community based on the principles of democratic policing. This philosophy will aim at the creation of a professional, impartial, politically, flexible and dynamic police force in action to protect public order and security and ensure law enforcement throughout the country, respecting human rights and freedoms and the constitutional principles of the legal state. Reform in the field of legislation has begun since the adoption of the Law on State Police no. 8553, dated 25 November 1999, Law on Ranks in the State Police, Law on Supplementary Social Insurance of Police Personnel and by-laws such as the Discipline Regulation and the Regulation of State Police Personnel. Now, police are in phase II of reform implementation.
Implementation of Police Reform has started to have a positive impact in the area of law enforcement, the fight against criminality and the security of public peace and order, respect for the freedoms and rights of the police. man, morality and motive in the performance of duty until self-denial (See Report 2000). In the memories of the Albanian Police History many police officers have been fixed, which have become a symbol of sacrifice and self-denial in the performance of duty. With their acts of bravery, the police have some names of heroes and martyrs
