....Arab Emirates: WAR ON DRUGS |
The Prime Minister last night vowed to fight drugs and immoral crimes. Shaikh Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa ordered the Interior Ministry to map out a comprehensive plan for the crackdown.
| Hi-tech equipment and highly trained staff should be a key element of the plan, he said. The Premier's directives came in a letter addressed to parliament in reply to its proposal.
An anti-drugs national committee, headed by the Interior Minister and comprising ministers and representatives of government institutions, has been set up to co-ordinate with the authorities in this regard, the Premier said. |  |
The committee has already started implementing a drugs programme in co-ordination with UN and youth committees in charge of educating youngsters on the dangers of drugs.
The government, in co-operation with parliament, will not spare any effort to clamp down on drug abuse and vice, Shaikh Khalifa added.
