*'''Operation Brakion''' - The secret arrest and murder of [[Shen Doik]], chief advisor and widely suspected power behind the throne of the previous regime. Immediately after the PCD victory, Doik left the country and took up residence in [[the Cape]]. In October 1994 BSP agents successfully kidnapped him in [[Cape Town]] and put him on a plane to Corumm. It is suspected that Doik was tortured and murdered aboard the plane and his corpse thrown somewhere in the Ocean of Cathay. Brakion was the first of many similar operations against former members of the military regime. | *'''Operation Brakion''' - The secret arrest and murder of [[Shen Doik]], chief advisor and widely suspected power behind the throne of the previous regime.

*'''Operation Panoptes''' - Operation Panoptes refers to the concerted effort to expand surveillance of opposition politicians on both the left and right after the PCD victory. With the Ministry of Justice 'untying' its hands, the BSP began massively bugging private homes and offices, constant tapping of telephone and internet based conversations, intercepting and opening mail. Parallel operations were undertaken by tax authorities to create a database of opposition politicians and their assets, legal and illegal. | *'''Operation Panoptes''' - Operation Panoptes refers to the concerted effort to expand surveillance of opposition politicians on both the left and right after the PCD victory.

*'''Operation Dendron''' - | *'''Operation Dendron''' - A two part operation, the first part was the orchestrated mass arrest and physical liquidation of the entire national and regional leadership figures of the [[Communist Party of Corumm]]. The second part was the taking of the infant children of the victims and their induction into BSP-run institutes to be raised as government assets. | ||
*'''Operation Eschaton''' - The targeted killing of leadership cadres of the [[Army of Common Men]] beginning in March 1995. The killings mostly took the form of car bombs, poisoning and in at least five instances with a remotely controlled machine gun. The operation lasted approximately two years and its success was a necessary precondition for the later Operation Maniphage. During Eschaton approximately 430 people were asassinated. | *'''Operation Eschaton''' - The targeted killing of leadership cadres of the [[Army of Common Men]] beginning in March 1995.

*'''Operation Maniphage''' - The gradual infiltration of the leadership ranks of the [[Army of Common Men]]. In the months before the start of Operation Eschaton, BSP agents joined the ACM as low level operatives. The BSP's targeted decimation of the leadership forced the ACM to progressively rely on newer but apparently loyal members to fill the yawning gaps in the organization. By late 1995 seven out of the ten members of the ACM's Directorate were BSP infiltrators. The new leadership proceeded to direct the ACM into even more radical actions, especially against civilians. This caused whatever popular support it still had, to completely collapse. | *'''Operation Maniphage''' - The gradual infiltration of the leadership ranks of the [[Army of Common Men]].
