Doha: The Ministry of Justice’s Legal and Judicial Studies Centre yesterday organised a panel discussion on the legal qualification of judicial police officers in law enforcement. It was held in cooperation with the Police Institute at the Ministry of Interior and the Institute of Criminal Studies at the Public Prosecution.
Minister of Justice H E Masoud bin Mohammed Al Ameri stressed that the panel discussion reviews a basic pillar of the justice that all legal and judicial authorities in the country seek to establish, and in implementation of the law that the government of the State of Qatar pays special attention to.
He noted that the jurisdiction of the judicial officer is considered the main pillar in the legal procedure for the work of the employee who obtains the status of a judicial officer in relation to the crimes that fall within their jurisdiction and related to the work of their job after a decision is issued by the Attorney General, in agreement with the competent minister.
The Minister expressed confidence that the panel discussion would come up with recommendations to address the aspirations of the competent authorities, and addressing any shortcomings in the judicial police work, enabling them to achieve their goals of achieving justice. This is to keep pace with the QNV2030 in its guiding principles, which stipulate the preservation of public and personal freedoms, and ensuring security and stability.
