The
Belarusian Presidential Guard is a law-enforcement body that was designed to protect the
President of Belarus and other high ranking officials and officers. However, the
United States State Department stated that the Presidential Guard is a
secret police force under the control of
President Alexander Lukashenko. The State Department in
1996 stated the guard was allowed to use force "
against the President's political enemies with no judicial or legislative oversight."
