Dubai Police Security Awareness has rewarded a 9-year-old Arab with a tour on one of the Dubai Police speed boats after he shows a passionate devotion to participating in the voluntary work in his community.

Lieutenant-Colonel Ali Abdullah Al Naqbi, Acting Director of Ports Police Station, welcomed Sultan Abdullah Muhsin at the station and took him on tour on the speed boat, to which his parents expressed their gratitude to the police for the thoughtful initiative that brought happiness and joy to their child's heart.
