“Dubai Police has become a role model for professional policing, especially with its proud record of local and international achievements,” he added.
Brigadier Al Razooqi explained that the Smart Police Stations (SPS) were established on the instruction of our wise leadership to make Dubai the smartest and most promising city in the world.
“They operate 24/7, and provide 27 key security services, including crime reporting, traffic accidents and public services. They also offer 33 fully automated community sub-services, ranging from obtaining a certificate of good conduct to applying for victim assistance. Given the cosmopolitan nature of the Emirate of Dubai, the SPS offers services in seven different languages: Arabic, English, Spanish, French, German, Russian and Chinese,” the director of the General Authority for Artificial Intelligence added.
