Militia Department - низачот
милиция по-английски будет police и никак иначе

Как коренной житель России, ответственно заявляю: нету у нас никакой-такой полиции (police), в Молдове, Грузии, США - есть, а у нас нету... Милиция - есть, а полиции нету.

Wikipedia:
Militia (Russian: мили́ция, IPA: [mʲi'lʲitsɨja]; Ukrainian: мiлiцiя; Belarusian: мiлíцыя; Bulgarian: милиция; Polish: milicja; Romanian: miliţia; Slovenian: milicija; Serbo-Croat: milicija/милициша; Macedonian: милициша) was used as a short official name of the police in in several former communist states, despite its original military connotation (see: Militia).

The term was used in the Soviet Union, the Eastern Bloc and the Warsaw Pact countries (for example Milicja Obywatelska in the PR Poland), but also in the Non-Aligned Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. It was inherited by some former Soviet states, such as Russia, Ukraine and Belarus.

Considering etymology of the term and the distinctive local features, the militsiya should be considered a distinct kind of regional policing system, not just a translation of the English "police". Militsiya forces in all post-Soviet countries share similar traditions, tactics and methods, although the differences are increasing over time.
