Col. Yasser Al Hashemi the Head of the Criminal Records Section, and several others.

To reward Kumar for his act of integrity and what is considered responsibility, Brigadier Al Suwaidi awarded Kumar. He also added that the people like Kumar have also a lot to give to the vision and mission of the Dubai Police force in increasing public credibility and safety. “Such acts of honesty go a long way in enhancing Dubai City’s credit of being a safe and transparent city where everyone is a good citizen,” said Brigadier Al Suwaidi.

When receiving the honour Kumar thanked the officers for the award and stated that it was mandatory for him to repay the money. He said, “It was the right thing to do, and I’m glad of the chance to stand for the principles cherished by the Dubai Police.”
