Force Comd, UNMISS, Maj Gen Moses Obi awarded Force Commander's Unit Citation to Bangladesh Military Police (BANMP/6) as a recognition of its outstanding professional competence in South Sudan, an official release said yesterday.
The Bangladesh Military Police Contingent was inducted into the United Nations Mission in Sudan (UNMIS) in November 2010 and was deployed within all the sectors of the mission.
With the liquidation of UNMIS in July 2011 after the expiration of its mandate and the birth of a new nation, the republic of South Sudan, the BANMP was relocated to Juba, the release said.
In spite of the transitional phase of the mission, UNMIS liquidation and the setting up of a new mission in South Sudan, the contingent settled down quickly and commenced the execution of its task diligently.
With the adoption of UNSC Resolution 1996 (2011) by the Security Council, establishing the United Nations Mission in the Republic of South Sudan (UNMISS), in line with the independence of South Sudan on July 9, 2011, BANMP/6 was one of the contingents that formed part of the UNMISS force at inception.
The contingent was entrusted with the responsibility of maintaining UN laws and order, and military discipline.
It also ensured a high standard of traffic discipline throughout its tour of duty by checking 9705 vehicles, 6060 vehicle documents and displaying exemplary investigation ability in handling of all types of crimes, accidents and incidents involving UN military personnel and assets.
This indicated the high level of professionalism of the unit.
Additionally, BANMP/6 successfully provided a number of VIPs close protection and VIP escorts to the dignitaries, including UN secretary General in 2010 and 2011.
For their professional competence in discharging their duties under challenging circumstances, on January 9, 2012 force commander, UNMISS, Maj Gen Moses Obi awarded Force Commander's Unit Citation to BANMP/6.
It is indeed a matter of great honour and pride for the Bangladesh army. This unearthing of the incident has glorified the image of the Bangladesh army as well as Bangladesh as a whole before the international community, the release added.
