Totally stumped on this one.
This is the sentence it appears in:
Särskild polistaktik består av flera olika delar: uniformerat mobilt insatskoncept, kiloenheter för civila ingripanden, dialogpolis och särskilt utbildade operativa chefer.
Does anyone have any experience of this term - or any ideas?

criminal police units
Phoned the police and asked.
"Kilo" is used instead of just "k" to make sure no mistakes are made. Used to be called k-enheter (=kriminalpolisenheter)

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer.
Comment: "Many thanks Sven - can only award four points - but this is deserving of a ten. Not sure they'd be called 'criminal' police units - but I get the drift, and I've had another contact from a friend at PHS here in Stockholm who says (as your own source indicates) that it's about plain-clothes (CID) type units."
