In the law enforcement system in Japan, {{nihongo|Prefectural police departments|都道府県警察|todōfuken-keisatsu}} are responsible for the regular police affairs{{refn|In the Article 2 of the {{nihongo|Police Law|警察法|Keisatsu-hou}}, responsibilities and duties of the police are prescribed as follows: to protect the life, physical body and property of an individual, and take charge of prevention, suppression and investigation of crimes, as well as apprehension of suspects, traffic control and other affairs concerning the maintenance of public safety and order.[1]|group=Note}} as to the areas of the respective prefectures. Although these Prefectural police departments are in principle regarded as municipal police, in fact, in many parts they are under the central control of the National Police Agency.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=442-448}} As of 2017, the total strength of the prefectural police is approximately 288,000: 260,400 sworn officers and 28,400 civilian staff.[2] BackgroundIn the Empire of Japan, territorial police forces were organised as {{nihongo|departments of police of each prefectural offices|府県警察部|fuken-keisatsu-bu}}. They were placed under complete centralised control with the {{Nihongo|Police Affairs Bureau|警保局|Keiho-kyoku}} of the Home Ministry at their core.[3] After the surrender of Japan, the Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers regarded this centralised police system as undemocratic. During the occupation of Japan, the principle of decentralisation was introduced by the 1947 Police Law (ja). Cities and large towns had their own {{Nihongo|municipal police services|自治体警察|jichitai keisatsu}}, and the {{Nihongo|National Rural Police|国家地方警察|Kokka Chihō Keisatsu}} was responsible for smaller towns, villages and rural areas.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=292-313}} But most Japanese municipalities were too small to have a large police force, so sometimes they were unable to deal with large-scale violence. In addition, excessive fragmentation of the police organisation reduced the efficiency of police activities.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=399-416}} As a response to these problems, complete restructuring created a more centralised system under the 1954 amended Police Law. All operational units except for the Imperial Guard were reorganised into prefectural police departments for each prefecture and the National Police Agency was established as the central coordinating agency for these police departments.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=435-448}} OrganisationEach prefectural police department comprises a police authority and operational units: prefectural public safety commission (PPSC) and police headquarters (PPH).{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=442-448}} Prefectural public safety commission{{nihongo|Prefectural public safety commissions|都道府県公安委員会|todōfuken kōan īnkai}} are administrative committees established under the jurisdiction of prefectural governors to provide citizen oversight for police activities. A committee consists of three members in an ordinary prefecture and five members in urban prefectures. The members of prefectural public safety commission are appointed by the governor with the consent of the prefectural assembly.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=435-448}}Prefectural police headquarters{{nihongo|Police headquarters|警察本部|keisatsu-honbu}} of Tokyo specifically refers to the {{Nihongo|Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department|警視庁|Keishi-chō}}. Also, in Japanese language, Hokkaido prefectural police headquarters are {{nihongo||道警察本部|dō-keisatsu-honbu}}, those in Ōsaka and Kyōto are {{nihongo||府警察本部|fu-keisatsu-honbu}} and are distinguished from other {{Nihongo|prefectural police headquarters|県警察本部|ken-keisatsu-honbu}}.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=435-448}}The {{Nihongo|chiefs of prefectural police headquarters|警察本部長|keisatsu-honbu-chō}} are appointed officials at the top of the chain of command in each prefectural police headquarters. In the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, the name of the {{Nihongo|Superintendent General|警視総監|Keishi-sōkan}} is used instead.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=435-448}} These police departments are responsible for every police actions within their jurisdiction in principle, but most important activities are regulated by the National Police Agency. Police officers whose rank are higher than {{Nihongo|assistant commissioner|警視正|keishi-sei}} are salaried by the national budget even if they belong to local police departments. Designation and dismissal of these high-rank officers are delegated to the National Public Safety Commission.[4] Each prefectural police headquarters contains administrative departments (bureaus in TMPD) corresponding to those of the bureaus of the National Police Agency as follows:{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=465-467}}
In addition, urban prefectural police departments comprise a {{nihongo|general affairs department|総務部|sōmu-bu}} and a {{nihongo|community police department|地域部|chīki-bu}}.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=465-467}} There are some 289,000 police officers nationwide, about 97 per cent of whom were affiliated with Prefectural Police Headquarters.[5] Criminal investigation{{See also|Criminal justice system of Japan}}In the Empire of Japan, the criminal investigation was presided over by prosecutors, like the ministère public does in French law. Then, with the 1947 Police Law (ja) and the 1948 Code of Criminal Procedure (ja), the responsibility of investigation has been defined to be uniquely assigned to police officers. In order to fulfil this responsibility, criminal investigation departments or criminal investigation bureaus (judiciary police) were set up in each police organisation. After the establishment of the 1954 amended Police Law, these departments are supervised by the Criminal Affairs Bureau of the National Police Agency.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|p=320}} Criminal investigation departments or criminal investigation bureaus maintain two {{nihongo|investigation divisions|捜査課|sousa-ka}} (third or even fourth divisions are established in some urban prefecture), a {{nihongo|organised crime investigation division|組織犯罪対策課|soshikihanzai-taisaku-ka}} (reinforced as an independent department or headquarters in the TMPD and some prefectures), a mobile investigation unit, and a {{nihongo|identification division|鑑識課|kanshiki-ka}}. The {{nihongo|mobile investigation units|機動捜査隊|kidō sousa-tai}} are first responders for initial criminal investigations, distributed among the region with unmarked cars. The {{nihongo|special investigation teams|特殊事件捜査係|tokushu-jiken sousa-kakari}} are specialised detective units of the first investigation divisions, well acquainted with new technology and special tactics including SWAT capabilities.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|p=320}} They are mandated for critical incidents except for terrorism,{{Sfn|Kakitani|Kikuchi|2008|pp=18-26}} but in some rural but well-versed prefectural police like Aomori, these detectives can form a counter-terrorism task force together with uniformed officers and riot specialists.[6] Traffic policingOriginally traffic policing was mainly done by community policing officers. However, with the progress of motorization since the 1950 's, traffic accidents have increased dramatically, resulting in the so-called traffic war, the system of traffic police was also strengthened.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=934-1051}} From the mid-1960s, mobile patrol units were installed at several PPHs, and in 1972 they were installed at all traffic departments of the PPHs as {{nihongo|Mobile Traffic Units|交通機動隊|Kōtsu-kidō-tai}}. Traffic cars (including unmarked cars) and police motorcycles are deployed in these units. And as the development of the expressway advanced, the establishment of the {{nihongo|Expressway Traffic Police Units|高速道路交通警察隊|Kōsoku-dōro kōtsu-keisatsu-tai}} was also decided in 1971.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=934-1051}} Public security{{See also|Public order and internal security in Japan}}At the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, {{nihongo|public security policing|警備警察|keibi-keisatsu}} is divided into a public security bureau, which is responsible for investigation activities; and a security bureau, which is responsible for security forces operations. In other prefectural police headquarters, their security departments are in charge of all public security policing matters, but in the departments, they are divided in the same way as they are done by the MPD. They are supervised by the Security Bureau of the National Police Agency.[7] Within their security departments or security bureaus, each prefectural police headquarters maintains {{nihongo|riot police units|機動隊|kidō-tai}}. These units are not only riot police units literally, but also some kind of rapid reaction force for disaster relief or other emergency missions, and reinforcement for regular police when necessary. Full-time riot police can also be augmented by regular police trained in riot duties.[8] Counter-terrorism operations are also the affairs of the security departments. The Special Assault Teams are the national-level units and anti-firearms squads are the local units.[9] These units are established within the riot police units basically, but SAT of the TMPD and Osaka PPH are under direct control of their security bureau or department.{{Sfn|Kakitani|Kikuchi|2008|pp=18-26}} Community policingIn Japanese police, community policing is treated as being close to crime prevention, and in rural police headquarters, community safety departments in charge of crime prevention sometimes concurrently handle community policing. Community policing officers are organised into several {{nihongo|police stations|警察署|Keisatsu-sho}}. Each station includes the following sections:[10]
Officers of the community police affairs sections are distributed in their jurisdictions, working at {{nihongo|police boxes|交番|Kōban}}, {{nihongo|residential police boxes|駐在所|Chūzai-sho}}, radio mobile patrols, etc.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=916-933}} These community policing officers are supported by the community police department or the community safety department of the prefectural police headquarters. In addition to the administration of the police radio networks, they provide inter-regional patrol units and air support: {{nihongo|motor patrol units|自動車警ら隊|jidōsha-keira-tai}} and a {{nihongo|police aviation unit|警察航空隊|keisatsu-kōku-tai}}, and many other assets.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=916-933}} RanksPolice officers are divided into nine ranks:[11]
The NPA Commissioner General holds the highest position of the Japanese police.[13] His title is not a rank, but rather denotes his position as head of the NPA. On the other hand, the MPD Superintendent General represents not only the highest rank in the system but also assignment as head of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.[13] Equipment{{multiple image|header_align=center| align = right | direction = vertical | width = 250 | image1 =Uniformed police officers with firearms in Japan.jpg | caption1 =Community policing officers with standard uniforms and revolvers. | image2 =Japanese riot police-2.JPG | caption2 = Riot police officers on crowd control duties. | image3 =Training scene of the hostage rescue operators of the Kumamoto Prefectural Police.png | caption3 = SWAT detectives with bulletproof vests and Beretta 92. | image4 =ERT_operators_in_review.jpg | caption4 = Anti-firearms officers with bulletproof vests and Heckler & Koch MP5. }} UniformIn the pre-war era, police officers were wearing a jacket with a stand-up collar. In 1946, the jacket was changed to four-buttons, open-collar style with vent and in 1950 a new police duty belt to wear gun and baton was adopted. But at this point, the uniforms of the National Rural Police and the municipal police differed in details.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|p=309}} During the reorganisation in 1954, uniforms were to be unified across the country, but because that would take time, only the class chapter was unified at this time. After that, in 1956 a new uniform was adopted. The jacket became the turned-down collar style with three buttons, and the vent was done away with. Also, at this time, the summer clothes became grey, but in 1968 it was changed to greyish blue.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=523-528}} Through the campaign against the Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security Between the United States and Japan at the end of the 1960s, helmets and protective gear for riot police officers were improved.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=518-520}} On the other hand, general police officers were wearing blade-deflecting vests under uniforms so that they would not be noticeable, but since the 2000s, a strong stab vest to overlay on the uniform was adopted. And in case of gun violence, bulletproof vests are also equipped.[14] Ordinary police officers, riot police officers, SWAT detectives, and counter-terrorism operators use different vests of different standards.[15] Service weaponIn the pre-war era, most Japanese law enforcement officials had only a sabre. Only some elite detectives, bodyguards, or SWAT units such as the Emergency Service Unit of the TMPD were issued pistols. FN Model 1910 or Colt Model 1903 were used for open-carry uses, and Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket or FN M1905 for concealed carry. During the Occupation, the Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers suggested them to be equipped with firearms. Because of the insufficient stocks of the domestic handguns, Japanese police started to receive service pistols leased from the Allies from 1949, and by 1951, all officers were issued pistols.[16] In the beginning, types of sidearm varied, but M1911 pistols and M1917 revolvers, Smith & Wesson Military & Police and Colt Official Police were used as their main sidearm. The .38 calibre revolvers were well-received, but .45 calibre handguns were too large to carry for somewhat small officers especially women. And especially M1917 revolvers were obsolete, deteriorated significantly, so malfunction or reduced accuracy had been a problem. As a response to these issues, the National Rural Police Headquarters started to import small .38 Special calibre revolvers such as Smith & Wesson Chiefs Special and Colt Detective Special. And from the 1960s, procurement began to migrate to the domestic Minebea "New Nambu" M60. When the production of the M60 was completed in the 1990s, deployment of small semi-automatic pistols was considered, but this plan was abandoned after small numbers of SIG Sauer P230 were deployed. Finally, imports from the United States was resumed, S&W M37 and M360 revolvers have been purchased for uniformed officers. And some elite detectives, bodyguards, or counter-terrorism units such as the Special Assault Team are equipped with 9×19mm Parabellum calibre semi-automatic pistols, Heckler & Koch USP, for example.{{Sfn|Otsuka|2009}} From sometime in the 1970s, the Special Armed Police (ancestor of the Special Assault Team of the TMPD) introduced Heckler & Koch MP5 submachine guns. And from sometime in the 2000s, local counter-terrorism units (anti-firearms squads) and SWAT units of crime branches (Special Investigation Team of the TMPD, for example) were started to be equipped with MP5. In the SAT and urban AFS units, there are also assault rifles.{{Sfn|Otsuka|2009}} Initially, the sniper team was established in the 1960s, the Howa Golden Bear (original model of the Weatherby Vanguard) has been used as a sniper rifle, then, it has been updated to the Howa M1500. In the Special Assault Teams, Heckler & Koch PSG1 and L96A1 also been deployed.{{Sfn|Otsuka|2009}} In the Japanese police, service pistols are generally left at work when they are not on duty.[17] TransportationGroundIn Japan, there are about 40,000 police vehicles nationwide with the average patrol cruisers being Toyota Crowns and similar large sedans, although small compact and micro cars are used by rural police boxes and in city centres where they are much more manoeuvrable. Pursuit vehicles depend on prefectures with the Honda NSX, Subaru Impreza, Subaru Legacy, Mitsubishi Lancer, Nissan Skyline, Mazda RX-7, and Nissan Fairlady Z are all used in various prefectures for highway patrols and pursuit uses. With the exception of unmarked vehicles, all PPHs are painted and marked their vehicles in the same ways. Ordinary police vehicles are painted black and white with the upper parts of the vehicle painted white. Motorcycles are usually all white, and vehicles for riot police units are painted blue and white. AviationIn Japan, the deployment of police helicopters began in FY1960. They are extensively used for traffic reporting, the pursuit of suspects, search and rescue, airlift or many other missions.{{Sfn|National Police Agency Police History Compilation Committee|1977|pp=516-518}} Total of about 80 helicopters are being operated in 47 prefectures nationwide. Some helicopters are equipped with stabilised TV camera and microwave link systems.[18] WatercraftPolice watercrafts of Japan are divided into five groups: 23-meter type, 20-meter type, 17-meter type, 12-meter type, 8-meter type. As of 2014, 159 vessels are deployed nationwide.[19] Since the Japan Coast Guard is in charge of the outside of ports, police watercrafts are mainly mandated for rivers. However, sometimes they are dispatched to support police activities on the ground even on detached islands.{{Sfn|Kobayashi|2008}} List of Prefectural Police DepartmentsThe PPHs except for the Hokkaidō Prefectural Police and the Metropolitan Police Department are under the coordination of the operations monitoring and the wide area investigation by the {{Nihongo|Regional Police Bureaus|管区警察局|Kanku Keisatsu-kyoku}} of the NPA.[5]
