MUHAMMAD Sufyan Muhammad Riyad Arain, a Pakistani driver based in Dubai, did not hesitate to surrender 101,000 Dirhams worth of cash to the police forgotten by a passenger who took his service.
Muhammad Riyad, who works as a driver for a limousine rental company, did not hesitate to surrender the huge amount of cash to the Al Barsha Police Center.
The Pakistani national expressed gratitude for the recognition bestowed by the Dubai Police.
An awarding ceremony attended by officials at the Al Barsha Police Center was exclusively arranged to honor the ex-pat driver.
Senior police officials praised Muhammad Riyad for his honesty and for being a shining example of noble values to society.
In August 2022, His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, made an effort to personally thank a delivery driver who went viral online after removing dangerous blocks from a busy intersection.
Dubai is known to honor civilians who have shown acts of kindness and honesty as a way of encouraging positive contributions from the public.
