Astynomiaphobia is the correct psychological term with astynomia meaning police in Greek and phobiais fear in Greek.

Policophobia is more commonly used as slang which means a fear of police encounters that appears to be more associated with a class of residents such as renters, low income households, young, non-white, and those with a sense of disenfranchisement from government, society and neighbor.
