SUBJECT: LEAHY VETTING REQUEST: ANP RANK REFORM OF AFGHAN BORDER
POLICE CANDIDATES (FIVE OF FIVE)
1. This is an action request; please see paragraphs 2 and 3.
2. In order to comply with Leahy vetting requirements, this cable
forwards the names and biodata of fifty-one (51) Afghan National
Police (ANP) field grade officers selected for positions in the
Afghan Border Police. When there are individuals with one name,
Post has made a good faith effort to ensure that these individuals
actually only have one name. This is the fifth of five cables.
3. IMPORTANT NOTE: The international community recently approved
pay increases for ANP company grade officers (captains and
lieutenants); however, pay increases for the field grade ANP
personnel will not be approved until completion of Rank Reform.
Currently, ANP field grade personnel earn less than their Afghan
National Army (ANA) equivalents, a situation that is causing severe
morale problems. Completion of the ANP Rank Reform process will
significantly alleviate deteriorating morale, which is why Post
requests the Department's expedited vetting and response at the
earliest possible date. Post greatly appreciates Department's
strong support for completing the ANP Rank Reform process.
4. Following is the biodata for the 51 ANP officers:
