Rasa - Commander of Iran’s railroad police unveiled plans for the formation of a dog squad to help the forces in anti-drug operations.
RNA - Speaking to Tasnim on Monday, General Alireza Akbarshahi said the railroad police is already using the canines trained by the Police Special Forces on a limited scale.
Upon approval by senior commanders, the railroad police will have its own dog squad to improve the capabilities in the war on narcotics, the commander added.
Using police dogs appears to be very deterrent, as it will reduce narcotics-related crimes and improve police abilities in detecting drugs, he went on to say.
Detection or sniffer dogs are trained by police to detect substances such as explosives, illegal drugs or blood.
