Mikhail Fetisov
Mikhail Fetisov was a career police detective and member of the Moscow Militia (then known as the Moscow Municipal Militsiya) who in 1983 became the lead investigator into the Andrei Chikatilo serial murder case. He later became a lieutenant general in the Russian police force. Murder investigation Chikatilo's murders had begun as early as 1978 in the Rostov Oblast, at that time covered by a rural police militia with only a small detective force, known as the "Division of Most Serious Crimes". By 1983, as murders of young boys and girls mounted across the countryside overwhelming local authorities, the Soviet government ordered a team from Moscow, with Fetisov as its commander to take charge and investigate the killings. Fetisov, then a major in the Moscow militia, arrived in Rostov-on-Don with a team of specialists, including a forensics expert named Victor Burakov who Fetisov put in charge of a new investigation division which he christened the "killer department".

Police
The police are a constituted body of persons empowered by a state, with the aim to enforce the law, to ensure the safety, health and possessions of citizens, and to prevent crime and civil disorder. Their lawful powers include arrest and the use of force legitimized by the state via the monopoly on violence. The term is most commonly associated with the police forces of a sovereign state that are authorized to exercise the police power of that state within a defined legal or territorial area of responsibility. Police forces are often defined as being separate from the military and other organizations involved in the defense of the state against foreign aggressors; however, gendarmerie are military units charged with civil policing. Police forces are usually public sector services, funded through taxes. Law enforcement is only part of policing activity.

Major General
Major general (abbreviated MG, maj. gen. and similar) is a military rank used in many countries. It is derived from the older rank of sergeant major general. The disappearance of the "sergeant" in the title explains the apparent confusion of a lieutenant general outranking a major general, whereas a major outranks a lieutenant. In the Commonwealth and in the United States, when appointed to a field command, a major general is typically in command of a division consisting of around 6,000 to 25,000 troops (several regiments or brigades). It is a two-star rank that is subordinate to the rank of lieutenant general and senior to the rank of brigadier or brigadier general. In the Commonwealth, major general is equivalent to the navy rank of rear admiral. In air forces with a separate rank structure (Commonwealth), major general is equivalent to air vice-marshal. In some countries including much of Eastern Europe, major general is the lowest of the general officer ranks, wit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Medal "For Impeccable Service"
The Medal "For Impeccable Service" (russian: Медаль «За безупречную службу») was a Soviet military award for long service awarded to deserving members of the military personnel of the armed forces of the USSR, of the Interior Ministry of the USSR and of the Ministry for the Protection of Public Order of the USSR, to recognise ten, fifteen and twenty years of faithful and impeccable service to the state.
