Desert horsemen keep the peace
As the night comes over Al Awafi desert mounted Emirati police patrols the other boundaries of the UAE without attracting any attention. It is headed by the Emirati police chief. They move silently and their weapons are a phone and a walkie talkie. Their goal is to make the country safer. Sometimes they stay near fenced camps to hear if there is a problem so they can solve it silently. Horses and riders are trained not to be scared by any kind of sound. The horsemen are light weight and Indians, while the police chief is trying to recruit Emirati. The patrol continues through the year except in summer, but they are focused in the winter. Their main benefit is to help police with investigating and solving crimes. They can go places where cars can’t go to help protecting people. The idea was discovered in the past, some tribes sent their people to patrol their areas.
