President of the Athletics Federation of Serbia Veselin Jevrosimovic was a guest of Dubai Chief of Police Major General Abdullah Kalifa and on that occasion he presented him with the Federation's plaque, and in return, as a gesture of good relations, he received a plaque from the Dubai police and membership in the "Police Officer" club of this city.

In this way, cooperation between the Athletics Federation of Serbia and the Dubai Police was crowned, which has been ongoing for some time and brings direct benefits to our best athletes who were given the use of the police stadium in Dubai for training during preparations.

"Big thanks to the commander and head of the Dubai Police, Major General Abdulah Khalifa, a great friend of our country and the Athletics Federation of Serbia, with whose consent and permission our athletes use the Dubai Police Stadium for training process during preparations," said Jevrosimovic.

Major General Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri is a high-ranking police general, promoted to that rank in March from the position of brigadier.

He commands the Dubai Police Corps of 15,000 trained, prepared and armed law enforcement officers.

A key part of his management of the police force involves the implementation of smart technology. Last year at Gitex, Dubai Police unveiled a range of devices, including a glove that understands its user's sign language gestures and translates them into Arabic on a computer screen, as well as a range of e-services initiatives to increase efficiency.

Abdullah Khalifa founded the VIP Protection Motorcycle Group in 2008 and is credited with coming up with the Dubai Police smartphone app. He was assigned a key role in security preparations for Expo 2020 Dubai.
