Dubai, Nov 24: The Ras Al Khaimah Police in the United Arab Emirates have announced cash prize for students who report drug dealers to the authorities.
The force's general commander Major-General Ali Abdullah bin Alwan Al Nuaimi made the announcement on behalf of Sheikh Mohammed bin Saud bin Saqr Al Qasimi, Crown Prince of Ras Al Khaimah, during the second edition of the anti-narcotics student forum organised by the RAK Police and RAK Medical and Health Sciences University.
Maj-Gen Nuaimi said they "spare no effort" to develop the youth's awareness against narcotics. "Narcotics are a big threat to the youth's present and future. A prize money will be given to anyone who reports a drug dealer involved in peddling narcotics among students."
Dr Talaat Matar, head of psychiatry department at the Ibrahim bin Hamad bin Obaid Allah Hospital, said that young people, aged 18 to 25, are mostly targeted by drug dealers.
Col Adnan Ali Al Zaabi, director of the anti-narcotics department, RAK Police, said the police deal with zero tolerance with drug smugglers and dealers. "They are mainly targeting the young people, especially Emirati nationals."
Families must be on the "frontline" in the war against narcotics and take the first responsibility for protecting their kids, Col Al Zaabi said. "The RAK Police spare no effort in developing public awareness against drugs, but everybody has to chip in the anti-narcotics war."
The anti-narcotics policemen foiled a smuggling bid at the RAK International Airport recently where an Asian tried to smuggle narcotic pills worth Dh1 million in his gut.
The RAK police are geared up to attend to any report on drug dealers, smugglers or abusers round the clock on toll-free number 999.
