Spezialeinsatzkommando (SEK)

Описание

Spezialeinsatzkommando или сокращённо SEK - специальное подразделение полиции Германии. Выполняет задачи аналогичные американским SWAT (Пока вкратце так. Чуть позже добавлю больше информации, а также перевод статьи с википедии.) Материал статьи: Spezialeinsatzkommandos (SEK) (previously also known as Sondereinsatzkommando) are the special response units of the German state police forces. German SEKs are full-time units whose members do not perform any other duties, and are essentially the equivalent of American SWAT Teams. The comparable unit of the German Federal Police is the GSG 9. Organization The organization of special police forces varies from state to state. Whilst most states have created one SEK in their capital city, have others taken regional crime focuses into account and established SEK units in major cities known as hotspots for violent crime, such as the North Rhine-Westphalia Police or Rheinland-Pfalz State Police. The Bavarian State Police and Hessen State Police have two SEKs each, one covering the north and one covering the south of the state. A SEK unit can be attached to the (barracked) Rapid Reaction Police or to big regional police headquarters. However, the common trend is to put the SEK units under control of the State Investigation Bureau, whenever possible in a unit also consisting of the Mobiles Einsatzkommando (MEK, mobile special response unit) or other specialized forces like crisis negotiation teams.
