19 Belgium Azerbaijan The Belgian Federal Ombudsman transfers relevant complaints against the police to the ‘Comité P’ (Standing Police Monitoring Committee) Complaints may be made using an online complaint form or by submitting a completed hard copy form to Comité P. Complaints about the police made directly to the federal ombudsman are transferred to the competent authority (Comité P). At present no other oversight mechanisms exist although crimes committed by the police may be reported to the Office of Public Prosecutor of the Republic of Azerbaijan. Oversight is undertaken by the Internal Investigations Department (IID), which is a separate unit within the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA). IID is directly subordinate to the Minister. It conducts internal supervision over compliance with the law in internal affairs bodies. Comité P monitors: the local and federal police; the coordinating body for threat analysis (OCAM); services whose members carry the rank of judicial police agent or officer; and persons with individual responsibility for detecting and reporting offences. MIA officers supervise compliance with the law, human rights and civil liberties in executing their duties and conducting inquiries into complaints, completing applications and reports regarding involvement of MIA officers in activities inconsistent with their office, violations of the law and illegal actions. Comité P does not monitor judicial or administrative authorities except to examine the way in which the political decisions taken by these authorities are implemented by police forces or services with police powers. Committee P is not, in principle, an ombudsman and was not set up to resolve individual problems encountered by complainants. Individual complaints in the categories of traffic violations, criminal activity involving the police, police conduct or breach No external oversight mechanisms constituted in law. Comité P is constituted in law as the method of external monitoring of police forces and intelligence services. There are no reports of any further progress with efforts to promote external oversight. In 2013, supported by the Council of Europe, delegates from Azerbajan were present at a presentation in Tiblisi, Georgia, aimed at promoting the development of independent, external oversight of the police.
