All uniformed police operate under the authority of the Commission of Public Safety (CPS), itself an arm of the Ministry of Justice. The CPS is in charge of normal, day-to-day law enforcement including but not limited to preventing, detecting and stopping illegal crimes and violent behaviour, handling mass incidents such as assemblies, demonstrations and maintaining order in public places, managing special industries and dangerous goods, and handling public security administrative law enforcement cases. While CPS is organizationally independent of the [[Bureau of State Protection]], it can be operationally placed under the latter's command under certain situations. CPS is the most commonly used tool of repression by the government to suppress potential trouble and it is greatly feared by the public. | |||
Less visible but with more built-in authority is the [[Bureau of State Protection]] (BSP), the political police of the state. This agency is responsible for internal security, foreign intelligence, counter-intelligence, border security and other tasks conductive to protecting the state and preserving the power of the [[Party of Corummese Democrats|Party]]. The [[Bureau of State Protection|BSP]] is responsible for most atrocities committed by the Corummese state including political purges, mass imprisonment or extermination of troublesome groups and other forms of state terrorism. | |||
