Interior Minister Lieutenant General Shaikh Rashid bin Abdulla Al Khalifa was attending a parade at the Police Fort to mark the day.
“Within these national occasions, comes the celebration of Bahrain Police Day as a bright milestone in the national achievements,” he said.
“There is no doubt that security is a reality in Bahrain and the efforts and sacrifices of police personnel have resulted in stability and reinforcement of the state of law and institutions.
He said the police force, which will soon be completing its 100th anniversary, has succeeded in proving its excellence in dealing with challenges.
Its aim is to strengthen social security and protect national unity, the minister said.
