Police corruption is one of the kinds of corruption that exists in the Sindhi society today. It is basically the misconduct of police i.e. when they misuse their power and their position to gain personal benefits which may be economic gains.

Furthermore, in the Sindhi society, it is seen that police tend to favor influential people rather than punish them when they are violating the rules and regulations. Such acts can also be categorized as corruption. Judicial corruption is another form of corruption; it denies justice and makes bias

There have been many attempts to put an end to police corruption, with no real success. An attempt to eliminate corruption, by increasing salaries, more training, incentive for education, and the development of policies that focus directly on factors leading to corruption. Despite many efforts by the police departments to control corruption, it still exists. Police corruption has a very long standing history. Controlling corruption has to come from both the police department and the assistance and support of local community members.
The third issue we found out from “Serpico” is corruption. In the movie, police officer Frank Serpico exposed corruption in the New York City police department.

Corruption in the law enforcement is still a great issue we face today and there is ways to prevent this heinous act of selfishness such as having a strong leadership and operational procedures in the sense that law offices should always have an eye kept on them by higher officials.

To prevent such things from happening is considered an impossible task and while that may be, there are ways to eliminate corruption among the judges. Many counties have anti-corruption agencies, however, the United States does not. Conversely, the United States does have anti-corruption organizations and acts that help contain and eradicate the spread of corruption.
