History

Having gained independence the young republic found itself at the crossroads of transport routes among its neighboring countries. A surge of goods was transited across the country to adjacent states. It wasn’t always the aim of transporters to deliver those goods to their destination outside Belarus. Vehicles weren’t undergoing customs clearance increasingly often; they were unloaded in the territory of Belarus while taxes and customs duties weren’t paid thus causing economic damage to the state. Moreover vehicles were attacked by criminal groups. As a result, in order to provide escort of valuable goods as well as other types of security services taking into account a growing demand on them, an Independent Motorized Platoon of the Police was organized in accordance with the Resolution of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Belarus, Order No.1 of the association “Okhrana” (“Security”) of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of May 13, 1992.
