State of Libya Al Radaa For Countering Terrorism & Organized Crime. (Arabic: دولة ليبيا جهاز الردع لمكافحة الارهاب والجريمة المنظمة) is a Madkhali[1] radical Islamist special operations military police unit formed in Tripoli Libya for the purpose of tackling crime. It is also known as RADA Special Deterrence Forces, or commonly, "RADA". Its focus is high-profile kidnappings,[2] murders, drug and alcohol poisoning related deaths, illegal migrant smuggling, weapons smuggling, explosives smuggling, terrorist attacks and plots. A lack of political power and police presence in Tripoli provoked the founding of this special unit.
The leader is Abdul Raouf Kara.[3][4][5][6][7]
Rada has been involved in tackling non-Islamic activities and dissidents within Tripoli, including fighting against Libyan National Army.
