Russia (bbabo.net), - Vladimir Putin said that the offensive fight against crime should be a priority for the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"The most important priority is an active, offensive fight against crime," he stressed, speaking at a meeting of the collegium of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The President also demanded to achieve a radical increase in the detection of crimes in the Russian Federation.

“Last year, changes were made to the federal law “On Police” that expand the powers of police officers. Including when they receive reports of incidents, they can immediately inspect residential premises and vehicles. We need to use these opportunities effectively to quickly solve crimes in hot pursuit ", Putin ordered.

At the same time, the president noted that the rights of citizens should also be ensured. "We agreed with the minister's proposals, with your proposals that work in hot pursuit is extremely important for solving crimes and the effective operation of the law enforcement system as a whole, but the fears of human rights activists are not without certain grounds, please keep this in mind and ensure, guarantee the rights and freedom of citizens," he said.
