Abu Dhabi : A map of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), the largest till date, bearing some half a million finger-prints has been unveiled here.
The map, created in recognition of the services of the Abu Dhabi Police, was uncovered Monday by Maj. Gen. Khaleel Daoud Badran, its director general of the financial services, according to news agency WAM.
The Abu Dhabi Police department is celebrating its golden jubilee Dec 5.
The map was created in coordination with Abu Dhabi Police Watani, a social development programme, and My Homeland, My Security campaign.
The making of the map was a part of Abu Dhabi Police’s ongoing drive to cement partnership between communities and the police.
Finger-prints of senior government officials and members of the public were collected at schools, universities and shopping malls throughout the city and arranged by Watani to create the map.
