The Special Women Police Contingent (SWPC) of the Dhaka Metropolitan Police was created in 2008 to specifically track female criminals involved in criminal activities such as prostitution, drug smuggling and human trafficking.[1] With increasing proportions of female criminals in Bangladesh, the SWPC, composing entirely of female officers, would be used to gather intelligence that men are seen as less capable of gathering.[1] FormationThe Special Women Police Contingent (SWPC) was formed in 2008 with the intention of developing a special unit consisting only of women that would investigate crimes involving female criminals. Bangladesh Narcotics Control Department reported that as many as 100,000 people were engaged in drug trafficking, of whom 40 percent were women.[1][2] Bangladesh Police considered male officers to be less effective than women in gathering information and investigating crimes involving women and had already been using female police officers more in tackling crimes involving female criminals.[1] As an all-women force, the SWPC is the first of its kind in Bangladesh's history.[1] ActivitiesThe SWPC was created to gather intelligence and investigate criminal activities that have increasingly involved female criminals. The SWPC will track down female criminals involved in criminal activities such as prostitution, drug smuggling, human trafficking, theft, homicide and swindling. Female criminals have proliferated in crime as women have traditionally aroused less suspicion in the police and public.[1] OrganisationBangladesh Police has organised an SWPC within the Dhaka Metropolitan Police and plans to raise units across the country.[2] Currently, there are roughly 2,000 women officers in Bangladesh Police - less than two percent of the total force and one-third of whom are deployed in the capital Dhaka.[1] Bangladesh Police plan to train and hire 3,000 women officers to bolster the SWPC.[1][2] An Assistant Commissioner of Police in charge of the Dhaka SWPC who leads a detective force of 24 women officers.[2] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 {{cite web|title=Women police intelligence unit in Bangladesh|url=http://news.indiainfo.com/2008/08/30/0808301357_women-only_police_intelligence_unit_raised_in_bangladesh.html|publisher=Indiainfo.com|accessdate=2008-09-29}} 2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Bangladesh raises new unit of women police|url=http://www.zeenews.com/articles.asp?aid=465490&sid=SAS&sname=|publisher=Zee News|date=2008-08-30|accessdate=2008-09-30}} 3 : Law enforcement in Bangladesh|2008 establishments in Bangladesh|Police units of Bangladesh |
