Interior minister calls for disbanding of all security bodies outside state control
Interior Minister, Imad Trabelsi, has called for the dissolution of all unofficial security agencies, including those affiliated directly with the Presidential Council and the cabinet. Speaking at a cabinet meeting, Trabelsi said, 'We must dissolve all security bodies without exception and integrate their members—particularly the youth—into the police and army.' He added that if necessary, he was ready to dissolve the General Security Directorate and the Support for Directorates Authority 'within half an hour.' Trabelsi defended the performance of the General Security Apparatus, led by his brother Abdullah, following criticism of its involvement in a controversial security operation in Abu Salim last month. He also condemned years of interference by armed groups in internal security affairs, which he said had weakened the ministry's performance. However, he stressed that the ministry had made significant progress in fighting crime and solving cases. The interior minister confirmed that his ministry is capable of securing the capital without the help of any parallel forces. He announced the creation of a complaints fund, allowing citizens to report abuses—especially those involving the General Security Apparatus—through official channels. In response, Prime Minister Abdulhamid Dbeibah expressed support for the minister's call and reiterated his government's readiness to dismantle any non-state armed groups and incorporate them into the country's formal security institutions. He added that the government would formally request the Presidential Council to disband any security bodies not affiliated with the Ministry of Interior. 'After Eid al-Adha, we will announce comprehensive security arrangements, and this state project will proceed without compromise,' Dbeibah said.
