The opening(summary paragraph) seems to be rather boastful of the japanese police services; I am nominating it to be reviewed for POV. -- Eyaw Nayr 21:38, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
More references and pictures to get a B class, I feel.-- SGGH 15:02, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
In the section of "special police", it says "railroad police of Japan Railways Group". I don't think it is correct. Until 1987,there had been railroad police of "Japan National Railways". In 1987, "Japan Naitonal Railway" was privaterized to "Japan Railways Group"(private companies). In Japan,private companies are not allowed to have police,so now railroad polices are run by regular police officers. There are some articles in Japanese wikipedia to support this: ja:鉄道警察隊, ja:鉄道公安職員
And also,there is another special officer which this article doesn't mention. It is drug inspectors of "Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare". They fight against illegal drugs.
As I cannot use English well,so would someone update this article,please? -- 220.212.40.213 17:56, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
I found more information that could be included in the new future. Someone should get info regarding the Prime Minister's Residence Official Guard Unit, the NPA's NBC Terror Response Squad (As least from what I've seen it translated) and the Narita Airport Guard. I just recently found these out. 70.68.55.148 00:58, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Do Japanese cops (beat cops, those in the koban, etc) carry firearms? LordAmeth 00:49, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
No, not everyone, only in Special Units like the Crime Investigation Unit and so on, and of course the SWAT. The normal Police only uses non deadly Weapons and Martial Arts like TMP Aikido.
Not true, all Japanese police are trained and carry a firearm, normally a small revolver. I met a detective whilst working over there with the police who used a sig. Most detectives carry semi autos, but the average beat cop carries a revolver. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.18.227.125 ( talk) 23:15, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
In his book, The Japanese Police Establishment, Ralph J. Rinalducci states that male Japanes police officers were generally armed in accordance with the duties that they performed. They were issued either New Nambu or Smith and Wesson .38caliber revolvers. Granted the first edition was in 1972 then1974, so it is kinda dated, however, when I was in Toyko, Japan, all the Police that I observed on the streets were wearing holsters with lanyards attached to something in the holsters which I believe to be pistols. All the traffic police were definitely armed.-- 71.246.30.208 ( talk) 16:30, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

I changed this sentence:
Very few foreign residents cannot claim they were not stopped without reason by a Japanese police officer...
to:
Many foreign residents claim to have been stopped without reason by a Japanese police officer...
I'm guessing that's what comes out of it when you cancel out all those negations. Without a reference the whole thing seems very anecdotal, though. "Many claim" is no kind of source. I'm thinking the whole section should probably be removed. Willi5willi5 ( talk) 08:07, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Incident 2
Treatment of foreigners by Japanese Police (Tokyo) needs study. Following a minor driving infraction the police delayed a co-operative foreign driver for over an hour while Japanese driver's committing the same infraction were processed within minutes. The officer involved seemed to be taking pleasure bullying the caucasian. I question this officer's suitability for a modern police force. If there are others with similar attitudes the police force must admit they have a real problem on their hands. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.183.189.121 ( talk) 21:27, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
I removed the topic that was added to the article by 80.57.84.209. I removed the topic and place it in a new area as Unknown Sources. Then removed that to because it is unknown fact and seem like gossip.
I would remove this data from article... But it brings up a good topics that I have wonder about.
I hope some can look into this?

Not going to name how I got the proper naming of ranks, I'd like to share my insight on how the NPA (Keisatsucho) is officially structured:
