Because the Cylon occupation of New Caprica leads to numerous security restrictions and heightened levels of control and repression on the planet, a band of human resistance fighters, regarded by the Cylons as insurgents, begins to strike back against the occupying Cylon army. This leads to the formation of The New Caprica Police (NCP), humans who either volunteer or are coerced into working for the Cylon authority. Wearing black ski masks, blue body armor, and green uniforms with white armbands, the New Caprica Police are considered traitors to the human race and are regarded with both disgust and disdain by the majority of the planet's human civilization. The NCP is often tasked with performing "dirty work" for the Cylons, rounding up both suspects believed to be part of the resistance as well as innocent civilians who are often illegally imprisoned, beaten and executed.
The Resistance estimates that up to 200 humans are secretly working for the NCP (Occupation).
The most significant damage the resistance inflicts on the NCP comes when the group is infiltrated by Tucker "Duck" Clellan. In a spiralling depression caused by the death of his partner, Nora, Clellan agrees to be wired with and detonate an explosive device in a suicide attack during the graduation ceremony of a New Caprica Police academy class (Occupation). Casualties include thirty-three NCP cadets and numerous Cylons. James "Jammer" Lyman, a New Caprica Police captain and former deckhand under Chief Galen Tyrol on Galactica, survives the attack.
After the human population escapes New Caprica and reunites with the Fleet, a number of known and suspected collaborators, including Jammer, are charged with and convicted of crimes against humanity and treason. They are summarily executed by the Circle, a tribunal secretely created under the executive order of President Tom Zarek to investigate and decide the fate of people implicated as collaborators during the Cylon occupation of New Caprica.
