Comoros State Security Services
The 600-member GP reports to the president's office.
However,
after the assassination of President Abdallah on November
26,
1989, the GP, under Colonel Denard's command, controlled
the
country. After assuming responsibility for Comorian
security in
December 1989, France announced that the GP would be
limited to a
representative role with a reduced number of troops. The
500-
member National Police Force (Force de Police Nationale)
is
headquartered in Moroni, with detachments in the other
islands.
