While the killers behind the assassination of Hamas commander Mahmoud Al Mabhouh in Dubai on January 19 have yet to be brought to justice, there is no doubt that the assumed identities of those involved in the dastardly plot are well known. The expulsion of an Israeli diplomat by the UK underscores this.

In a display of policing and investigation unparalleled in the UAE, Dubai Police quickly pieced together the intricate plot and identified the perpetrators. This policing expertise has not gone unnoticed by law-enforcement specialists the world over.

Major General Khamis Mattar Al Mazeina, Deputy Commander of Dubai Police, has delivered a lecture to Interpol at its headquarters in Lyon, France.

Clearly, the expertise and professionalism of Dubai Police, combined with its ability to quickly piece together this plot and to identify the gang, has placed the force in the forefront among its peers.

The safety of all is in good hands.
