Posts of the local police will be built on a number of roads, at the entrance to the Autonomous Territorial Unit of Gagauzia. According to the official website of Gagauzia, such a decision was taken in a meeting of the local executive body following complaints from people about unfounded checks to which drivers are subject by employees of the National Patrolling Inspectorate, IPN reports.

At the request of Bashkan Mihail Formuzal, persons in charge will draft a legislative initiative that will ban patrols by officers of the National Patrolling Inspectorate on the region’s territory.

On the other hand, the head of the press service of the General Police Inspectorate Sabina Cojusnean has told IPN that the setting up of police posts in Gagauzia forms part of the measures planned by the Ministry of the Interior for this year, within the national campaign “Know your police officer”. A number of 200 police stations and posts all over the country will be built, renovated and equipped in a move to facilitate the work of the police and to be closer to the people.
