The number of criminal reports received by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of the Dubai Police decreased by 63.2% in 2022 compared to 2021. Lt Gen. Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri, the commander-in-chief of the Dubai Police, attributed the dramatic drop to creative security measures implemented throughout the city.
In front of senior departmental officers, Lt. Al Marri made these remarks during an annual inspection visit to the CID.
The Crime Prevention Department of Dubai briefed the Commander-in-Chief and revealed that it had apprehended roughly 422 wanted criminals last year in addition to informing him of many ongoing security initiatives.
55 awareness workshops for 4,085 hospitality and tourist professionals were among the significant performance outcomes and initiatives recognised by the Tourist Police Department.
The Missing and Found Department, on the other hand, said in its performance that it honoured 14 truthful people who turned in lost property to the police last year and returned over 745 things to their respective owners.
