HistoryThe first police agency in Qatar was formed in September 1949 as the 'Discipline Police'.[2] It was centered in the Doha Police Station in Souq Waqif. Its duties involved traffic control and law enforcement.[2] In a response to widespread protests which broke out in Qatar in 1956, then-emir Ali Al Thani began heavily investing in the police force. As a result, a new police headquarters was built during the 1950s.[3] OrganisationThe Police Force is under the authority of the Ministry of Internal Affairs,[4] which was created in 1970.[5] The Police Force consists of a large number of divisions and departments. Departments which encompass the Police Force include a National Central Bureau of Interpol, criminal intelligence departments, investigation and inquest departments, drug abuse control departments, civil defense departments, human resources departments, medical departments, and traffic police departments.[5] Police forcesQatar Police ForceIn 2006, the Police Force comprised 2,500 individuals.[4] They are responsible for enforcing the laws and arresting law violators.[1] Qatar State Security{{Main|Qatar State Security}}Qatar State Security is a branch of the Ministry of Interior which are responsible for matters relating to political disputes, terrorism, and espionage. They were formed as a result of a merger between the Secret Police Office and Investigation and State Security Service.[6]TrainingPolice officers are required to attend the police academy in Doha before they can be admitted into the force.[1] Historically, the Police Force was overwhelmingly composed of males. There were only 30 females in the Police Force prior to 2003. That year, a whole female squadron with 107 women graduated from Qatar's police academy for the first time in history.[4] In December 2013, Qatar's emir Tamim Al Thani passed a decree to establish a four-year police college. A police official stated that the objective of establishing the institution was to create a highly trained police force which would be able to maintain security in large events such as the 2022 FIFA World Cup.[7] The college opened in August 2014 with an enrollment of 130 students and a budget of QR 2.5 bn.[8] References1. ^1 2 D.
