The General Department of Community Happiness at Dubai Police, in collaboration with Hatta Police Station, honoured Hatta citizen Rashid Al Hafiti and his family for their effective and continuous volunteering in all different events organised by Dubai Police across Hatta.

Al Hafiti family were honoured by Brigadier Ahmed Yousef Al Mansouri, Deputy Director of the General Department of Community Happiness, in the presence of Colonel Abdullah Rashid Al Hafeet, Acting Director of Hatta Police Station; Lieutenant Colonel Rashid Bin Markhan Al Ketbi, Head of the Criminal Records Section at Hatta Police Station; and Captain Ahmed Al Bahr, Director of the Community Relations at the General Department of Community Happiness.

Al Mansouri highlighted that honouring Al Hafiti family was a gesture to appreciate the contribution they have exerted in the events held at Hatta by Dubai Police such as the “Open Meeting”, which brought citizens and residents of Hatta together with Dubai Police leaders. Al Hafitis’s participation also involved volunteering in different activities organised as part of Dubai Police’s community-based initiative “Positive Spirit”, as well as the Iftar meal distribution initiative during the holy month of Ramadan, the “Day of Tolerance” event, and many more.

Al Mansouri pointed that Dubai Police, in line with the directives of Lieutenant General Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri, Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police, are keen to honour all members of the community who volunteer constantly confirming that volunteering is an important value and an essential part of our culture and religion and that parents play a vital role in instilling this value in their children.
