The Ministry of Internal Affairs, also called the Ministry of the Interior, abbreviated VKD, is the interior ministry of the government of Tajikistan. It oversees the Presidential National Guard[1] and the Internal Troops.[2] Since 2012, the Minister of Internal Affairs has been Lieutenant General Ramazon Rahimov.[3] He is responsible for youth crime prevention and working to lower youth crime rates in the country.[4] The law "On Police" was adopted on 7 April 2004 by the Supreme Assembly of Tajikistan to define the duties of the interior ministry.[5]

History

The first Tajik militia was founded on 7 December 1924, when the People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs of the Tajik Autonomous Republic was formed. A week later on 14 December, Abdullo Yarmukhamedov was appointed the first People's Commissar for Internal Affairs. On 5 February 1925, thirty-three NKVD officers were transferred from the Uzbek capital to Dushanbe, where they would be stationed permanently as part of the NKVD division in Dyushambe the next day. During the Soviet era, politicians from Kulob often held high posts in the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Tajik Soviet Socialist Republic.[6] The Tajik Internal Troops were officially founded in 1993 after the founding of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Tajikistan.

OMON

The Special Purpose Mobile Unit (Russian: Отряд Мобильный Особого Назначения) or OMON is a special police unit of the VKD, originally created as the special forces of the Soviet Militsiya. The civil war in the country in the 90s was considered to have been caused by the local OMON defecting to anti-Rahmon Nabiyev protesters in May 1992.[11] A significant portion of the OMON at the time consisted exclusively of the minority Pamiri people. In February 2008, OMON commander Lieutenant Colonel Oleg Zakharchenko was killed in a shootout with a police unit composed of former opposition fighters in Gharm.[12] Colonel Gulmurod Khalimov, the former head of the Tajik OMON, made headlines in 2015 when he then defected to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).[13][14]

Military Band

The Band of the Ministry of Internal Affairs existed even before the collapse of the Soviet Union, under the direction of Senior Lieutenant Oleg Nazarov. After Tajikistan gained independence in 1991, a military formal military band was established under the leadership of Lieutenant Rusht Rushtov and the participation of local soldiers from military unit 6593. It was one of the first military band of the independent state or be founded. In 1994, when Turkish President Süleyman Demirel visited Dushanbe, a group from the band held an official welcome ceremony with the performance of the Turkish military march. Since 1991, the band has sported around 8 to 45 people, with ethnicities ranging from Russians to Tatars to Uzbeks. In February 2010, the former Interior Minister Abduhahim Kuharov awarded the entire band with the anniversary award in honor of the 85th anniversary of the Tajik Militia.
