The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Uzbekistan (Uzbek: O'zbekiston Respublikasi Ichki Ishlar Vazirligi; IIV), is a body of the Government of Uzbekistan that is charged with the internal affairs of Uzbekistan and oversees the national police. The Ministry of Internal Affairs was founded on 25 August 1991. It replaced the Soviet Interior Ministry. The current Minister of Internal Affairs is Pulat Bobojonov. The ministry holds joint control over the Armed Forces of the Republic of Uzbekistan. It also administers the Academy of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is the official educational institution of the ministry.
History
The ministry's predecessor was the People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs of the Turkestan ASSR, which was founded on June 26, 1919, on a charter for criminal investigation which was adopted in 1948. It evolved as the USSR and the region changed over time, eventually becoming a ministry which covered the citizens of the Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic. On July 20, 1953, the Council of Ministers of the Uzbek SSR adopted a decree on "measures to strengthen the fight against crime and maintaining public order", which gave the ministry more flexibility to act independently from the Soviet ministry.
After the announcement of the Republic of Uzbekistan as an independent sovereign state in 1991, all law enforcement bodies were changed and or restructured, with the internal affairs ministry going through a series of changes. The modern activities of the ministry were adopted by President Islam Karimov on January 8, 1993, which stated that the main tasks of the ministry is to protect the integrity of the Constitution of Uzbekistan and ensure the protection and security of citizens as well as their rights and freedoms. This was expanded in March 2001 to include domestic terrorism and Islamic extremism.
