"Faced with the increasing deterioration and devastation of the service caused by illegal decisions, nepotism, inability to manage such an important body properly, police officers can no longer remain silent. We cannot allow what the generations before us are to decay rigged public advertisements in which police officers with many years of experience are brutally eliminated and party comrades and relatives of high-ranking officials are brought to their jobs, employment of spouses to the highest positions without any advertisements and procedures, refusal to employ young people who have trained for this job at the police academy are only part of the problems we are facing," the statement of the Independent Police Union of Montenegro points out.

They added that the making of illegal decisions, the publicly stated position that laws are not binding for individuals, the violation of the Constitution of Montenegro and open, undisguised discrimination introduce the entire society to the terrain of complete legal uncertainty and lead us to anarchy.

"The violation of ratified international conventions that is currently in action, warns the World Confederation of Trade Unions, could affect the European path of Montenegro and the accession negotiations for membership in the European Union. We must not remain silent about all this. The future of all of us is at stake, the coming generations deserve a better and safer society to live in. We have to make it possible for them," the Independent Police Union of Montenegro said in a statement.
