JALALABAD, Afghanistan, Oct. 26 (Xinhua) -- A total of 446 young Afghans have been commissioned to the National Police Force after completing a training course in the eastern Nangarhar province, commander of the training center Qari Rahmatullah said Wednesday.
During the six-week training course, the new policemen learned how to behave with the people, how and when to use weapons and how to enforce law and order in society, the official said, adding the newly graduated police personnel would be deployed in the eastern Nangarhar and neighboring Laghman, Kunar and Nuristan provinces.
More than 50,000 policemen have graduated from the country's 10 police training centers since the establishment of the Taliban-run caretaker government in August last year, Amin Jan Fatehullah from the Interior Ministry said.
According to the official, the process of training police personnel would continue until the policemen become professional in the war-torn country.
According to the Interior Ministry, another contingent of 438 police personnel graduated from a police training center in the southern Helmand province days ago. ■
