The Charbakh Police Department to be dissolved
There will no longer be departments within the police structure. According to Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs Arpine Sargsyan, these are very small structural units that add extra layers to the overall management system. Thus, community policing will be organized as divisions.
The Charbakh department will be dissolved, as will all other departments in Yerevan and the regions.
From November 1, a single division may serve one, two, or three enlarged communities. However, there will not be a boundary division where an area is split between two divisions. This way, we will have a clear mechanism of responsibility, as both divisions could previously argue that they had fulfilled their responsibilities to the best of their ability, Sargsyan noted.
Previously, there were divisions that partially covered one community, while another division covered the other half.
