Special Actions Unit (Malaysia) (original) (raw)

The Special Actions Unit (Malay: Unit Tindakhas, Jawi: اونيت تيندق خاص), commonly known as and abbreviated to UTK is a tactical unit of the Royal Malaysia Police (RMP). The unit is headquartered at the RMP buildings in Bukit Aman, Kuala Lumpur. Together with the 69 Commando (Malay: Komando 69), they form the Pasukan Gerakan Khas ('Special Operations Command – Police SOCOM'). The UTK is comparable to a combination of the German Federal Police's tactical unit GSG 9 and the United States Secret Service.
