Today, the world faces unprecedented, new methods and aspects of crime that are threatening the security of national and international communities and differ in terms of the ways in which they are executed, the rapidity with which they can be transferred, and the technologies which are applied to them. Since the influence of local police bodies stops at the borders of their countries, concerted efforts and enhanced, mutual cooperation among all law-enforcement agencies of different competencies must therefore be made to combat and nip crimes in the bud, through the adoption and application of preventive measures, and through the unification of international efforts to dismantle and weaken criminal organizations and arrest their members.
In view of the strategy of Dubai Police, which keeps pace with the strategy of wise leadership of the United Arab Emirates, and strategies of the Government of Dubai, Dubai Police Force is keen to boost its cooperation with law-enforcement agencies and all concerned bodies at the local, regional, and international levels, exchange information and data, extradite criminals, provide effective channels of communication, consolidate its efforts at its land, maritime and air borders, and adapt technology and artificial intelligence to implement deterrent, proactive measures against criminals.
Dubai Police, with its achievements over the past decades, has become highly valued and has enjoyed a regional and international reputation, thanks to its combat against organized crime, and its cooperation with law-enforcement agencies in various countries of the world. It has been able to participate in international operations over the past years, to effectively contribute to combatting against crime, to extraditing and handing over criminals to jurisdictions, to deciphering electronic crimes and probing critical international issues, to seizing tons of drugs, to investigating crimes pertaining to vehicle theft as well as offenses of stolen or lost travel documents and other, diverse, cross-border crimes.
In Dubai Police Force, we are keen to share experiences and knowledge with police services in various countries of the world, thus ensuring the preparation of highly competent and professional police commands that versed in security, in order to confront crime and contribute to enhancing the sense of security felt among individuals in any country in the world.
Once again, I welcome you to the United Arab Emirates.
