The purpose of this study is to analyze the cause of the problem that the current police activities are overly criminal-oriented. The study also starts with the awareness that the area of administrative police for "public safety" through risk (or crime) prevention is being eroded. Based on this consciousness, we analyzed the causes of the problem and tried to suggest ways to cope with the police activities based on the criminal law.
There is a fear that the safety of the people can not be guaranteed from the crime (danger). This may lead to the contraction of on-the-spot police activities and consequent encroachment of the administrative police area.
In this background, what should we do in order to overcome the criminal justice-biased police activity? From the point of view of separation of police functions, first of all we have to separate administrative and judicial police. Through this, it is necessary to enhance the specialization of investigation by the judicial police on the one hand and strengthen the administrative police area on the other. Next, however, sufficient legal grounds for administrative police activities should be laid out to minimize the adverse effects of separation of administrative police and judicial police. The paradigm of police control through prosecution should be converted to court or democratic control. The procedural part of the warrant provision(by request of the prosecutor) in constitution should be deleted to reduce the rigidity of the warrant system.
