Residents can now check their criminal status in financial cases in Dubai, thanks to a new service by Dubai Police, an official said.

Brigadier Khalid Nasser Al Razooqi, director of the Artificial Intelligence Department at Dubai Police, said that people can log on to their website to use the free-of-charge service.

“Residents can check their criminal status in financial cases registered in police stations in Dubai. The service will cut time and effort in getting information regarding any cases against them. People can also download the Dubai Police smart app and enjoy the service,” Brigadier Al Razooqi said.
