Algeria lost 6 pct of police to conflict-minister

ALGIERS, July 23 (Reuters) - Islamic militants killed 6 percent of the Algerian police force -- or an estimated 4,800 -- during clashes in the 1990s, Interior Minister Noureddine Yazid Zerhouni said in remarks published on Monday.

"Police lost 6 percent of their numbers between 1992 and 2000 due to terrorism, which is enormous," several newspapers quoted him as saying.

One of the dailies, El Watan, calculated the 4,800 estimate on the assumption of average police strength of about 80,000 in those years. Algerian authorities do not normally publish numbers or even estimates of losses among security forces.

Up to 200,000 people are believed to have been killed in political violence since an Islamist revolt erupted in 1992.

Conflict broke out that year in the oil- and gas- exporting country after military-backed authorities scrapped parliamentary elections an Islamist party was poised to win.

The 200,000 estimate includes rebels, civilians and members of the government forces. Dozens of police, and thousands of civilians, were kidnapped or otherwise disappeared during the conflict and their bodies have never been found.

The deadliest rebel attack on police forces took place in 1995 when a car bomb targeted the main police station in the capital Algiers, killing at least 50 people.

The police force currently numbers about 111,000, and the government plans to raise that to 156,000 by 2010. The violence has subsided in recent years amid government amnesty offers to the rebels, but some bloodshed continues, mainly in the Kabylie region east of Algiers.

Al Qaeda's North Africa affiliate, Al Qaeda Organisation in the Islamic Maghreb, has claimed responsibility for most of the attacks.
