Abu Dhabi Police appointed Captain Hagar Rashid Al Naeemi, a digital crime analyst, as the first female Emirati police officer to work as a liaison officer at the Innovation Centre of Interpol.

The appointment of Captain Al Naeemi comes following the country’s commitment to make strides in promoting gender equality within its police force.

Captain Al Naeemi has been appointed for a three-year tenure in the international organisation which started in June. Her work at Interpol will lead to expertise in analysing cybercrime.
