قابوس بن سعيد
The Royal Oman Police is a well organised police force. Sultan Qaboos bin Said al Said is the supreme commander of the ROP. Under him comes the "Inspector General of Police and Customs". The title of "the Commissioner for police" which was used to be the title of the president of the force under the old Police Law No. 5/1973, a Royal Decree was issued on 26 November 1974 changing the title to "the Inspector General of Police and Customs". The post is currently held by Lt Gen Hassan bin Mohsin Al Shraiqi who replaced Lt Gen Malek Bin Sulaiman Al Ma'amari as per royal decrees by the Sultan amidst the 2011 Oman protests.
