Dubai: The Dubai Police General Command has announced the launch of its first set of non-fungible tokens, NFT, featuring 150 free digital assets that symbolise the Force's values of innovation, security and communication.

Brigadier Khalid Nasser Al Razooqi, Director of the General Department of Artificial Intelligence at Dubai Police, said the move allows public members, whether inside or outside the country, to own these digital assets for free after participating in the Dubai Police campaign with a repost, share and necessary information for registration of interest.
