Special Platoons deal, among others, with high risk detentions, perform border operations, if there is a need, they support other organisational units and ensure safety at border crossings (and also at airports). They can also operate as mobile groups within

the country. They train themselves and co-operate, among others, with police counter-terrorists, Operational-Intervention Groups of the Railway Security Guard, Military Police and Prison Service.

As they train themselves, they take advantage of the experiences of other units and work out their own methods of operation.
