Dubai Police has played the mediator’s role to perfection in a heartwarming gesture to unite a father with his son beyond a marriage dispute.
The efforts of Dubai Police were instrumental in reuniting the father with his five-year-old son after a 10-month gap and also counselling the parents to seek what is best for the child going forward.
Shad Hussein split with his wife in India after problems in their marriage. The situation worsened when the mother came to Dubai to live with her parents and refused Hussein to pay a visit.
Initially, financial problems made it difficult for Hussein to come to the emirate and when he did overcome to get a visit visa, his wife continued to be rigid in not allowing the meeting to happen.
Even Hussein’s father-in-law tried to convince his daughter to relent and when that did not happen, the help of Dubai Police was sought.
Brigadier Dr Tariq Muhammad Noor Tahlak, Director of Naif Police Station, said: “The man sought the help of his father-in-law to convince the boy’s mother, who insisted on not allowing him to see his son, not to involve the child in the marital dispute.
“The father-in-law tried his best to talk his daughter into changing her mind. However, she refused the advice and insisted on her decision,” he continued.

Brig. Tahlak confirmed that the child’s grandfather sought Dubai Police’s assistance in amicably talking the mother into changing her mind and seeking what is best for her little one.
He confirmed that they contacted the mother and succeeded in persuading her to allow the father to see his son after they had reminded her that this right is guaranteed by international and local laws as well as the Sharia.
In India too, when it comes to legal guardianship for small children, the mother gets the preference but the father gets visiting rights as long as they are not a threat.
“We explained to the mother that children’s rights must be respected, and children should never be involved in family disputes. We also reminded her that the UAE’s federal law on children’s rights, aka (Wadeema law), obliges both parents to respect the full rights of their children,” Brig. Tahlak said.
Hussein, expressed his thanks and gratitude to the Dubai Police, especially the victim support team, who professionally handled the family’s ordeal and granted him the precious chance of meeting his son.
