The Arab Police mutiny was an incident during the Aden Emergency where Arab soldiers and police mutinied against British troops.[1] While the mutiny itself was localized and quickly suppressed, it undermined the South Arabian Federation which had been organized by Britain in 1959 as an intended successor to direct colonial rule.
