Can the police just check the surveillance in the store?

Legal analysis: the police can't just check the monitoring in the store. The police are not allowed to check the monitoring of any store without official permission. However, when the police are performing official duties, they can check the store surveillance video by showing their ID cards and search or investigation orders. When the police perform official duties, generally speaking, more than two policemen with law enforcement power need to be present at the same time to exercise law enforcement power.

Legal basis: Article 78 of the Criminal Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), the executing organ can adopt electronic monitoring, irregular inspection and other monitoring methods to supervise the criminal suspects and defendants' compliance with the residential surveillance regulations; During the investigation, the communication of the criminal suspect who is under surveillance can be monitored.
