The Askeri İnzibat, or AS.İZ, is the Military Police of the Turkish Armed Forces; it constitutes a very small dedicated force that handles military security and military crimes. Their area of jurisdiction is generally limited to military bases. Some of the other duties they perform include the protection and VIP detail provided to important bases or commanders and control of traffic inside the bases. They can be identified using the very obvious “AS. İZ.”, printed in large letters across the front of their helmets.
