意思
Requesting emergency law enforcement.
文化背景
The unified emergency number is 112. Operators usually speak Latvian, Russian, and often English. There are two types of police: 'Valsts policija' (State) and 'Pašvaldības policija' (Municipal). You 'saukt' both using the same phrase. Latvians value privacy and quiet. Calling the police for noise complaints after 11 PM is very common. Historically, the term 'Milicija' was used during the Soviet era. Older generations might still use it occasionally, but 'Policija' is the only official term now.
Case Sensitivity
Never forget the '-u' ending. Saying 'saukt policija' sounds like you are naming a doll 'Police'.
The 112 App
Latvia has a '112 Latvija' app that sends your GPS coordinates to the police when you call.
