Libya's interrim government is encouraging former rebel fighters to sign up for the police and army.

After the fall Muammer Gaddafi, Libya was left with a security vacuum.
The interrim government had a strategy
to improve safety by creating the Supreme Security Committee -the SSC.

They are now more than 100 000 former rebel fighters patrolling neighbourhoods across Libya to curb criminal activities and prevent attacks.

While Human rights groups accuse this force of making random arrests and running secret prisons where torture
is common, some appreciate the work of these men and think that without them, any government would be weak.
