General nature

The Directory of Internal Affairs (Rakeoian: Directorio de Aferoj Internaj), abbreviated DAI, is a national policing agency in the country of Rakeo. The directory is known to be complicit in numerous human rights violations historically conducted by the Stratocratic Authority.

History

The Directory of Internal Affairs of Rakeo was officially established as a governmental directory in 1955, and it was tasked with the pacification of southwestern and eastern portions of the country. Jorge Mora Cáceres, first director of the agency, was seen as poor choice, as his loyalty during the civil war was primarily towards gangs operating in Olino and Paragon- However, he would quickly prove himself as a lethally effective leader.

Squads, often composed of former paramilitary/gang members, were formed to find pockets of resistance in the cities of the east. While summary execution was practiced at first, a system of forced labor was later implemented to repair infrastructure that had been destroyed during the war.

The DAI also provided weapons to death squads operating abroad in return for leads on members of the Rakeoian diaspora.

Program for governmental stability

In 1990, a package of documents outlining the “program for governmental stability” were leaked, alleging that the DAI assassinated between 134-213 individuals inside the bureaucracy, kidnapped suspected socialists and religious extremists, and detained family members to serve blackmail against defectors and dissenters.

Project Zarate

Project Zarate, named after the fictional Sequoyan criminal, was a program headed by Vacilo Pavla aimed at sequestering dissent over political repression in the years 2009–2013. An organized campaign of misinformation over orchestrated disappearances of students was used to justify increased surveillance measures at the islands' colleges. In two cases students were paid to move to a different campus and adopt new identities. In three cases, permanent disappearances were conducted. Details of the program were released by defector Rikardo Gilez in 2015.
