Kakar earns the equivalent of $72 a month - the same as male officers. She maintained other officers in Kandahar treat her "like a man." A senior officer, however, said privately that Kakar was simply being stoic. "They are really ugly with her," he said. It made me feel so sad to read that. The article also reminded me of what would happen if you called the police in Gaborone, Botswana because, for example (this happened) somebody was trying to break into your house. The cop would say, "We have no vehicle, Rra, shall you come to fetch us?"
