Grievance Redress Mechanism through Public Safety Commissions
The Police Order (PO) 2002
replaced previous police legislation, and
introduced additional accountability
mechanisms. The Public Safety Commissions
created under the police reforms in 2002
have been vested with powers to make the
police accountable at all functional levels
through appropriate provisions of law. This
is a case, at least in theory, of
democratization of police regulations.
