Of course not, but in this case we have YET to see any form 
of "police" whatsoever and I'm willing to bet if we did, Dumbledore 
would trust them about as far as he trusts anything else Government 
Related.

This begs the question, just who/what ARE the 'police' in the WW? 
Aurors? I doubt it, they seem more of a special forces sort of thing-
-SWAT at the very least. I don't think they're handing out tickets 
for Apparating without a license.
