Abstract

The present study examines the institution of the judicial police in the modern State of Justice. The aim of the article is to submit an applicable proposal for the establishment of judicial police in Cyprus. For this purpose, with the methodology of the legal science,
the concept of the police in general and the institution of the judicial police in the conceptual classes of continental Europe are examined. In France, the institution of judicial police was born and the general principles of its operation were developed. In Italy, the
judicial police is constitutionally enshrined. In Germany, the judicial police is systematically organized at the central and regional levels. Finally, in 2022, a judicial police force was established in Greece under the influence of the mandates of the Treaty of Lisbon, for judicial and police cooperation between the Member States of the European Union. The main characteristics of the judicial police of the above States are attempted to be included in the proposal to establish judicial police in Cyprus, so that the Republic of
Cyprus emerges as an efficient, modern and European state of justice.
