Dubai Police's emergency hotline 999 receives thousands of calls daily from distressed residents who need urgent assistance -- including family disputes.
Police 999 operators are trained to efficiently handle all such distressed calls and try to provide the best assistance at the earliest possible time.
Sharing details of a recent incident, Major Muhammad Aziz, Head of Shifts in the Command and Control Centre, said that they once received a call in the middle of the night from a man whose wife had left the house because of a family argument.
He added that the caller was extremely worried and did not know his wife's whereabouts and tried to call her several times, but she would not answer him.
