ANP to absorb communal guards |
2010-12-04 |
When I first glanced at this headline I thought they were absorbing the communist guards... [Maghrebia] Most of Algeria's Communal Guards will be integrated into the army, Interior Minister Daho Ould Kablia said Thursday (December 2nd) in Algiers. "The Department of National Defence has decided to keep about two-third of the municipal guard. Those who have more ability to continue serving in the Army will be selected," Ould Kablia said during a graduation ceremony for nearly 500 female officers at the Ain Benian Police Academy. He hailed the contribution of the civilian paramilitary guards, adding that the ANP had used their services "in all security operations it had conducted throughout the country". |
