The Navajo Tribal Council re-established a tribal police agency in 1959, under the supervision of the Superintendent of Police. In addition to its law enforcement responsibilities, the Navajo Department of Law Enforcement assumed responsibility for the care and custody of prisoners. As a result of multi-jurisdictional duties and responsibilities, the Navajo Police are prepared to handle violations of laws by non-Indians, non-members and members of the Navajo Nation. For this reason, the Navajo Police undergo intensive basic training to become certified as Navajo Police Officers, State Peace Officers in Ariz., N.M., Utah and as agents of the federal government. The Navajo Nation Department of Law Enforcement is headed by a chief of police, six police Captains, one police lieutenant. They provide oversight for the Department of Public Safety s departments: internal affairs, criminal investigation, patrol division, fiscal management and recruitment & training. Window Rock is one of seven law enforcement districts.
