Urgent.. Dubai Police arrests a number of foreign expatriates and warns citizens and residents

They also brought women and children with them to appeal to people's feelings and say they are stuck in the country.
Major General Al-Jallaf said that people shouldn't give money to these beggars or treat them with compassion and kindness. Instead, they should help the police by reporting any beggars they see right away to the call centre (901) or the Police Eye service through smart applications of Dubai Police, and the (E-) platform. hacking) to report it.
Brigadier General Ali Salem Al Shamsi, Director of the Department of Suspicious Persons and Security Phenomena, said that there are official bodies, bodies, and charitable organisations that anyone can turn to for financial help. He also said that some people beg because they need money, which is illegal and punishable by law. In line with Article No. 9 of 2018 about fighting begging and turning people over to the courts.
