Is it illegal to wear security clothes such as police uniforms?

This is not the first time that the Ministry of Public Security has cracked down on illegal wearing of police uniforms. Cases of fraud or other criminal acts will appear from time to time in society. If we do not strengthen the investigation and crack down on the illegal sale of police uniforms, on the one hand, it will easily affect the reputation and positive image of our people's police, on the other hand, it will also cause hidden dangers of new criminal ways to society. Therefore, carrying out such actions can improve social order, and also popularize some police-related knowledge and signs at the propaganda level, so that the public can know how to distinguish police, security guards and co-managers, get along with the corresponding personnel correctly in different situations, and reduce misunderstandings.

Legal basis:

"People's Police Law of the People's Republic of China" Article 36 * * * People's police uniforms are for special use and shall not be illegally manufactured and sold.

Security is a professional job in the service industry and has nothing to do with the police. It is a common job choice, and the coordinator is mainly a temporary worker who assists law enforcement officers in the grass-roots departments. He is not in the establishment, has no substantive law enforcement qualification and has no direct contact with the police. Then, from the nature of the post, these two types of personnel are not qualified to wear police uniforms.
