A group of 60 women police officers in Dubai have started an anti-riot course designed to teach them how to cope with crowd control.
Dubai Police, in cooperation with the Dubai Police Academy, is providing the novice female officers with lessons in how to control riots and ensure security in states of emergency.
In an opening speech, Brigadier General Ahmed Khalfan Al Mansouri, head of the Emergency Section at Dubai Police, said it was important the officers make the most out of the specialised course, which would teach them the functions and responsibilities of organisation and security in instances of riots.
