French policeman (8)

I believe the answer is:

gendarme

'french policeman' is the definition.
(French military police officer)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for gendarme that I've seen before include "Soldier on police duty" , "Law enforcer" , "Nice policeman" , "French police officer" , "Busy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The Independent, The Guardian and the Evening Standard.
