It had a negative impact on police bodies, and the criminogenic situation was out of control. Heydar Aliyev's return to political leadership in 1993 saved the country from the abyss. Today policy of Heydar Aliyev is successfully pursued. Human rights are fairly protected in the country. Azerbaijani police is the main state institution in the protection of statehood. I am confident that the Azerbaijani police will continue the fight against crime successfully. "
