Indian agency police were policemen hired by the Indian Agent assigned to a Native American tribe. Many tribes had no recognizable governments and therefore no tribal laws. On these reservations, the Indian Agent hired tribal members to effect law and order according to Federal, agency, and treaty rules. These were considered federally appointed policemen. The Indian police that killed Sitting Bull were of this kind

Indian tribal police are peace officers hired by those Native American tribes which have a constitutional government as opposed to hereditary chiefs. Tribal police historically had several different titles—sheriffs, constables, regulators, lighthorsemen, etc.— and today work closely with local, state, and federal police agencies.

The United States Indian Police (USIP) were organized in 1880 by the Union Agency in Muskogee, Indian Territory, to police the Five Civilized Tribes. The USIP recruited many of their policemen from the ranks of the existing Indian Lighthorsemen. Unlike the Lighthorse who were under the direction of the individual tribe, the USIP was under the direction of the Indian Agent assigned to the Union Agency. Many of the US Indian policemen were given Deputy US Marshal commissions that allowed them to cross juridictional boundaries and also to arrest non-Indians.

In 1886 two Indians killed Sam Sixkiller who was the popular Captain of the US Indian Police and a Deputy US Marshal comissiond by the Judicial District of Western Arkansas. After the killers escaped indictment by the tribes, Congress passed a law (24 Stat., 463.) giving the district Federal courts juridiction over any Indian who committed a crime against a federally appointed Indian policeman or United States deputy marshal.

American Indian reservations have a particular degree of independence or sovereignty. they have their very own police forces, basically as say a city or county has their very own sheriff or police. even in spite of the reality that a reservation is interior a state and a county, the state and county governments have little to no say as to what takes position there. In an severe concern like a homicide, federal businesses like the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the FBI might want to become in contact.

Are you talking about the Indians that the US Army recruited to hunt down other indians- around the time of the civil war I think.

There was also the same kind of thing in India in the 1800s recruited by the English for pretty much the same purpose.

Loyal to the politicians, safeguarding anti-social elements, taking bribe for doing his duties, thrashing and killing innocent people, serving dons and murderers in the jail premises. We are a rich society in thoughts and deeds!

do you mean tribal police. Like the Law enforcement on tribal land, like "inidan" reservations. The reservations have their own police department, they enforce tribal law on tribal land.

Indian Police Service
The Indian Police Service (IPS) is one of three All India Services of the Government of India; others being the Indian Administrative Service (IAS) and the Indian Forest Service (IFS). The members of the IPS are primarily responsible for managing the policing functions of the states and the central government. These officers deal with all matters pertaining to the Internal Security of India. IPS specialises in all security related issues. Its members, who are all atleast university graduates, are the senior officers of the police, with DSPs, Inspectors and Constables belonging to individual state forces.

The Indian Police Service was established under British rule, when the vast majority of its members were Europeans.In its previous avatar this service was called the Imperial Police. As the name suggests it indeed was an imperial force dedicated to futhering the British Colonial rule in the country.The police and statute governing policing was brought about immediately after the East India Company's rule came to an end in face of the First Indian War of Independence in 1857. A worried British Government brought the country under their direct rule and wanted to create a force which would prevent and quell any rebellion in future. The Indian Police Act 1861 was passed and a force created to protect and perpetuate colonial rule in the country. Thus the nature of the Police Service and the force was hardly in consonance with democratic principles. In 1948, a year after India gained independence, the Imperial Police was replaced by the IPS. Sardar Patel, the first Home Minister of India had a glorious vision for the IPS. He saw it as a service which would work to uphold the rule of law and preserve the unity and intregrity of the newly independent nation.
