Law

The armed forces located throughout the country, and particularly the Military Police, could play an impor- tant role in dealing with drug production and traffick- ing. Many observers, however, feel that the military forces are presently more a part of the drug trafficking problem than its solution. Corrupt practices are, of course, not the special reserve of the military and the phenomena also severelyundermines other critical links in the fight against illegal drugs, especially law enforce- ment and judicial systems. Extremely low salaries,often below subsistence levels, force many individuals to seek alternative sources of income, both legal and illegal.
