However, Hameed says she is enjoying the job and she says women can do everything men can do and more.

"If men are asked to take on household responsibilities and babysitting, for the whole day, I don't think they can handle them.

But Hameed says her presence is "encouraging them to bring problems to the police station and their number is growing by the day."

This success has increased the willingness of local women to go to the police.

Pashtun families in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province have traditionally not supported women joining the police force. 通常，开伯尔-普赫图赫瓦省的普什图人家庭不支持女性当警察。
