He pointed out that the values and principles that form the basis of our daily work embody the approach that we derived from the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, stressing that we will continue on this path forever.

The Commander-in-Chief of Sharjah Police extended his thanks and appreciation to the strategic partners from departments, bodies, institutions and charitable societies for their outstanding efforts in enhancing the quality of life of inmates, and achieving the strategic goals and vision of the wise leadership in this regard.

For her part, Colonel Mona Sorour Al Shuwaihi, Deputy Director of the Punitive and Correctional Institution Department, said that the framework of the positive impact of the Unified Inmate Week contributes to enhancing the spirit of optimism and motivating inmates through rehabilitative, correctional and educational programmes, to enable inmates to return after release as good individuals for society, noting that the institution, through our partners who constitute an important focal force, pushes us to undertake exemplary initiatives that have a significant and direct impact on the reform and rehabilitation processes of inmates and supporting their families.

The audience then watched a film produced by the Sharjah Police General Command, titled “Adam’s Tree,” followed by an interactive, instructive dialogue session. At the end of the ceremony, the Sharjah Police General Command announced the release of (9) inmates.
