Life, health, rights and freedoms of a citizen as an object of police protection

The article is devoted to a general analysis of the law enforcement mission of the police, in the context of understanding the social value of the noted state institution, the main purpose of which is to protect the life, health, rights and freedoms of the citizen. Revealing the subject field of this defense, the author focuses on: firstly, the inadmissibility of replacing the law enforcement meaning of police activity exclusively with the methodology of forceful implementation of police competence; secondly, on the undoubted importance of instilling professional qualities among police personnel, the basis of which is the organic unity of legality and morality.
