During his traditional New Year visit to the different units of the Seychelles People’s Defence Forces, President James Michel also went to the L’Exile army camp at Sans Souci on Tuesday.
As this is a facility where media entrance is not permitted, photos were permitted to be published today of the visit.
The L’Exile army camp is the base for the Special Forces, which includes the Presidential Security Unit as well as the ‘Tazar’ Force.
The Tazar unit was created in November 2009 as part of this elite force for specialised commando operations, including anti-piracy operations.
During his visit, President Michel commended the Special Forces for their exemplary action and successful operations in the last year as well as preceding years.
Besides the visit to L’Exile, President Michel also visited the Seychelles Coastguard and the Seychelles Defence Academy. See more photos below:
