Dubai Security Cameras "Everywhere"

“We need to work according to a well-studied strategic plan and not only react to events as they come along...We will have cameras everywhere,” Lieutenant GeneralDahi Khalfan Tamim, the Chief of Dubai Police, told The National on June 19, 2010.

Attacker is free because no CCTV

Attacker is free because no CCTV

A lack of CCTV cameras has meant a glassing attacker has escaped conviction after a New Year's Eve assault, victim Kylie Keough says. Ms Keough was hit in the face with a glass on December 31, 2008, at the Ashmont Inn but 17 months later the attacker has yet to be charged. Although the venue has extensive video surveillance, the beer garden in which Ms Keough was assaulted was a blind spot.

MORE than 300 people have been arrested through the use of “spy cameras” in Nuneaton and Bedworth.

The public CCTV system is operated by the borough council, at a cost of almost £200,000, and is helping police in their war on public order crime.

A report to the Social Scutiny Panel meeting later today reveals that 115 cameras have been installed to cover key areas throughout the borough, including both town centres, the Riversley and Miners Welfare parks, leisure centres, inside the Town Hall and car parks.

Brent Davis, the assistant director for asset management and strategic development, says that between April and December last year a total of 720 incidents were recorded on the cameras and, from these incidents, there were 305 arrests, which equates to 42 per cent.
“The police make regular visitis to the CCTV control room to gain evidence and in the first threequarters of the year have done so 605 times, to review 459 copies of recordings. This resulted in 309 evidential copies being made,” he said.

More Dubai murder suspects named

The Israeli government has neither confirmed nor denied a role in the Dubai killing [AFP]

Investigators in the United Arab Emirates have identified four more suspects in the killing of a Hamas military commander last month - all of them holders of European passports.

Dubai police on Tuesday identified two more British and two more Irish passport holders as suspects in the murder of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh, adding to the 11 suspects already named.

The new details bring the total number of British passports involved in the hit to eight, and Irish passports to five. Suspects holding French and German passports have also been identified.

Authorities have been using immigration records and CCTV-captured images of the suspects to try to piece together what happened in the hours before al-Mabhouh's murder.

Al-Mabhouh was found dead in a luxury hotel in Dubai on January 20.

An FCO spokeswoman told Xinhua that "Any suggestion that we knew anything about the murder in Dubai before it happened, including about  the misuse of British passports, is completely untrue."
"As we have said already, the Dubai authorities told us about the role of British passports on February 15, just hours before their press  conference," she said. "We told them the following day that the passports used were fraudulent. The head of the Dubai police has also made clear that embassies were not contacted until shortly before the identity of the suspects was revealed."
