We have been told that the Singapore Armed Forces Military Police Command has mass recalled military policemen who were off-duty on Monday.
We understand that that some of those who were recalled involved servicemen who were needed to perform funeral drills and Line-of-Honour duties. The contingent has been practising since Monday.
Apart from maintaining discipline and overlooking security matters in the armed forces, the SAF Military Police plays a key ceremonial role in state funerals.
