Ghost in the Shell and Appleseed are anime about counter-terrorism, public security etc. with special forces but they are Sci-fi with AI, i cant really think of any modern and not futuristic recommendations, im kinda interested now

Yah, Ghost in The shell has a more cyberpunk feeling to it; not in the mood for something like that atm. I have all the OVAs in my hard drive though XD

Both animes have your demands but also have thing you dont like. Well just check it out maybe you will like it. Mnemosyne is kinda very gore like.

Black cat? this has some fatasy things in it tho.

Mnemosyne? Again some fantasy things. (damn my bad saw you already watched this one.)

The kind of anime your describing is not really popular. people like more spectacular things. So all the detective/secret orginisation thingy's have fantasy stuff.

oh sorry wasn't really paying attention..
Ryoko's case file might be interesting for you. She's a heir to a multinational security company and works with the police. The description looks kind of lame for it's nice for a 13 episode series. The opening is interesting enough to make you watch the first episode.

Golgo 13 - the main character is a jet setting, cold blooded, suave James Bond like assassin. Although he's technically a bad guy (kills people for money), there are some episodes that involve him working with federal agents. It can get fairly violent and bloody.

Witch Hunter Robin is like, about witches and sucks.

Red Garden is good, but not really that close to the topic since police play a minimal role.

Golgo 13 and Monster could be close (monster being even closer).


Otherwise, all I can think of are American TV shows, like The Wire or some 60s crime drama thing.

Uhh, Gunslinger Girl?

But as ESSWHY said, maybe you should watch American TV.

Higashi no Eden does a good job of nailing most of those points, although the foreground environment may not be to your taste. But the background you're looking for is definitely there.
