dbo:abstract
  • The Frontier Constabulary (Urdu: جمیعتِ سپاہیانِ سرحدی) is a federal paramilitary force of Pakistan under the control of the Interior Secretary of Pakistan, which is largely drawn from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, but operates in several districts of Pakistan. It is responsible for maintaining law and order, and dealing with situations beyond the capabilities of the civilian Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police. It also guards against tribal incursions, criminal gangs, and contraband smuggling. The Frontier Constabulary was created in 1915 by amalgamating the Border Military Police (formed in 1852) and Samana Rifles (formed in 1879), during the British Raj. Both of the forces were guarding the border between the tribal areas and the then-settled areas of the North-West Frontier Province (after which it is named). (en)
  • Frontier Constabulary (FCn) (ourdou : فرنٹیئر کانسٹبلری) est une force paramilitaire de police au Pakistan. Constituant un corps de 30 000 soldats, ils sont surtout implantés dans la province de Khyber Pakhtunkhwa ainsi que dans les régions tribales et placés sous le contrôle du ministère fédéral de l'intérieur. Faisant face à l'Afghanistan, ils sont notamment chargés du contrôle de la frontière ouest du pays. Créée en 1913 à l'époque du Raj britannique, la force paramilitaire supplée la police locale et a été un « outil » efficace des autorités britanniques puis pakistanaises pour assurer le contrôle de la frontière et le maintien de l'ordre dans la région. Leur rôle est stratégique étant donné le caractère sensible de cette zone, souvent insoumise, comme depuis le déclenchement de l'insurrection islamiste en 2004. (fr)
