Abstract

This case captures the problem of police corruption in Libya as one of the most challenging issues that is developing in the country. Fighting corruption in the Libyan police force is going to be a hard task to complete and raising the pay rate is not going to solve the problem. The problem can only be solved by watching officers’ progress, keeping a good pay rate, keeping up-to-date equipments and by praising the officers when they perform well. In today's society we are surrounded by the negative views shown by the media and of others about the way the police are doing their work. However to keep the police officers motivated and away from engaging in corrupted activities, you must show them that even the simplest arrest or enforcement of laws that they may not fully agree with will cause the betterment of the society that they are serving and protecting.
