Dubai Police have fulfilled a 4-year-old Arab boy's wish to become an officer for a day
The gesture is part of the 'Fulfil a Child's Wish' initiative, which aims to spread happiness and positivity among children of different ages and nationalities.
Officials visited the boy, gifted him a police uniform, and offered him a ride in one of Dubai Police's luxury police patrols after they learned about his wish from his parents.
The boy's parents had approached the Security Awareness Department at the General Department of Community Happiness, in collaboration with the Tourism Police Department at the General Department of Criminal Investigations.
The child's parents were overjoyed with the police's swift and generous response.
Major Ali Youssef Yaqoub, head of the Cultural Diversity Section at the Security Awareness Department, stressed the Dubai Police's keenness to enhance security and safety and instil happiness among community members.
