Sounds like you completely misunderstand what a police state is.
A police state does not require the police to be concerned with upholding the law. In fact there is usually a departure from the rule of law in police states.
As the other commenter mentioned, the police in a police state are usually concerned with maintaining order and protecting the power of the state or ruling faction, and policing people's behaviour to this end.
