The Somali police force like the country itself is in abysmal state- torn by civil war. Over 1000 German trained police officers reportedly disappeared and have allegedly joined an Islamist militia in 2009. The force is underpaid and resorts to illegal measures to increase their income. Rampage of private property and coercion of citizens for bribe is common in the country. Also there have been reports of the police turning away from crime and supporting injustice in return for financial bribes. Attempts have been made to improve the state but hitherto there has not been much success.
