The Special Police (Arabic: الشرطة الخاصة ash-shurṭah al-khāṣah) was the law enforcement arm of the Pan-Arab Army (PAA) from 1948–1957. Tasked mostly with preserving civilian order in All-Arab Army-co trolled territory, it was technically a branch of the PAA. It was superseded by the Directorate of Internal Affairs.
