Pudgy Pakistani police officers have been given until the end of the month to shrink their waistlines below 38 inches -- or get off the streets.Punjab police spokeswoman Nabila Ghazanfar said the province's police chief was determined to "turn the force into a fit one."
She declined to comment on a local media report that said 77 percent of the police in Rawalpindi had girths bigger than 38 inches around, but she acknowledged that many are overweight.
