A woman who showed “peculiar behaviour” whenever she saw police officers has had her fears eased with the help of a radio show and Ajman Police.
The 21-year-old Pakistani woman allegedly suffered from paranoid behaviour around police since age four.
This month her father called Al Rabia FM, a radio show in Ajman, for help after all attempts for treatment in his home country failed.
"She had been suffering from this disorder since she was four, and always showed peculiar behaviours when she saw policemen in uniform or passed near a police station, she had always believed that she is wanted by police," said the man, who lives in Al Hamidiya.
He said her condition worsened with time which prompted her family to send her back to Pakistan for psychological treatment.
"She showed the same symptoms and was taken to therapist after she had to drop university due to her immense fear of police uniform and everything related to police," he said.
Treatment in Pakistan was unsuccessful but the man said her therapist suggested police get involved to help eliminate her fear.
Following the father's call to the radio show, the host Abu Rashid, contacted Ajman police's chief, Maj Gen Sheikh Sultan Al Nuaimi who rallied officers from Al Hamidiya police station to help.
The woman, accompanied by father, was escorted to the police station where she was greeted with a bouquet of flowers. She met all police staff and the head of the police station Lt Col Yehia Al Matroushi who personally took her for a tour of the station.
"She was briefed on the work process and given the chance to access her data on the computer to see that she was not wanted by police," said the Lt Col Al Matroushi.
The tour seemingly dispelled the woman's concerns and thanked the police for their help.
"I'm deeply grateful for your help and kindness, I'm so excited and happy now, I can't thank you enough," she said.

Labour dispute
The insured employee may still file an ILOE claim even if a labour dispute is ongoing post termination, but the insurer may suspend or reject payment, until the courts resolve the dispute, especially if the reason for termination is contested. The outcome of the labour court proceedings can directly affect eligibility.

Who has been sanctioned?
Daniella Weiss and Nachala
Described as 'the grandmother of the settler movement', she has encouraged the expansion of settlements for decades. The 79 year old leads radical settler movement Nachala, whose aim is for Israel to annex Gaza and the occupied West Bank, where it helps settlers built outposts.
Harel Libi & Libi Construction and Infrastructure
Libi has been involved in threatening and perpetuating acts of aggression and violence against Palestinians. His firm has provided logistical and financial support for the establishment of illegal outposts.
Zohar Sabah
Runs a settler outpost named Zohar’s Farm and has previously faced charges of violence against Palestinians. He was indicted by Israel’s State Attorney’s Office in September for allegedly participating in a violent attack against Palestinians and activists in the West Bank village of Muarrajat.
Coco’s Farm and Neria’s Farm
These are illegal outposts in the West Bank, which are at the vanguard of the settler movement. According to the UK, they are associated with people who have been involved in enabling, inciting, promoting or providing support for activities that amount to “serious abuse”.
UAE cricketers abroad
Sid Jhurani is not the first cricketer from the UAE to go to the UK to try his luck.
Rameez Shahzad Played alongside Ben Stokes and Liam Plunkett in Durham while he was studying there. He also played club cricket as an overseas professional, but his time in the UK stunted his UAE career. The batsman went a decade without playing for the national team.
