Dubai: The General Department of Airport Security at Dubai Police succeeded in bringing a smile back to an Arab traveller after they located her and handed over her bag, which she had lost in Terminal 1, with all its valuable contents.

Colonel Abdullah Faisal Al Dosari, Director of the Terminal 1 Security Department, explained that an employee found a black bag in an open area. “Upon inspecting its contents, the bag was found to contain $20,000, 150 grams of gold, other currencies, mobile phones of various brands, and personal documents,” he added.

Col. Al Dosari noted that while the documents revealed the identity of the bag's owner, locating and contacting her required forming a team to trace her movements, especially since no report had been filed for lost property matching this description.

"The operations room was notified and the necessary procedures were taken to locate the bag's owner. It turned out she was about to leave the country for Saudi Arabia. She was extremely worried about losing her bag, unsure how to proceed, and afraid of missing her flight," Col. Al Dosari continued.

Dubai Police handed the bag over to the traveller after completing the necessary legal procedures and verifying that she held all required permits and documentation .

The traveller expressed her joy and deep gratitude for Dubai Police's efforts and their commitment to returning lost belongings and bringing happiness to travellers .
