Abu Dhabi Police announce support for inaugural 'Summer in Abu Dhabi'

Publication Date: 2 Jul 2008

The Abu Dhabi Police has offered to support the must-see ‘Science of Spying' attraction on Adventure Island, which will operate throughout the eight weeks of the event. The interactive educational exhibition will offer children an insight into real-life detective work with secrete passwords to break and missions to accomplish. Children will be able to go undercover and explore the skills and abilities by real law enforcement agents, using some of the latest technologies to help gather and analyze information.

In addition Abu Dhabi Police Cadets will be roaming the festival on a daily basis, ensuring the children's safety and offering assistance wherever needed.

First Lieutenant Fawaz Ali Abdulla, of the Abu Dhabi Police, said:

"Initiatives that improve society and strengthen the wider community of the United Arab Emirates are aligned with the vision of His Highness LT General Sheikh Saif Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Minister of Interior.   The Abu Dhabi Police is honoured to take part in such an exciting and educating event that collectively brings individual people and families together.  With the help of our police cadets and ‘science of spying' attraction, we are committed to providing our future leaders with a fun and informative insight into the Abu Dhabi Police force.  The Abu Dhabi Police is confident that this event is an important and valued contribution to the United Arab Emirates society".

Faisal Al Sheikh, Head of Events Section for ADTA, commented:

"We thank the Abu Dhabi Police force for their generous contribution. We have been honoured by the support of some of the UAE's most prestigious organisations and we are exerting every effort to produce one of the most memorable edutainment events in the Middle East."
