Russian term or phrase: СЧ СУ при УВД ЦАО

Please help my numb brain to avoid repeating "investigative" in this title. I am tempted to just put "the Investigative Department at the Administration for Internal Affairs for the Central Administrative District", as "Investigative Unit of the Investigative Department" sounds ludicrous as a direct translation, but am I detracting from the meaning?
Thanks in advance.
