It took the Dubai Police only 30 minutes to return a lost bag, containing AED102,000 in cash and passports, to the family of two Kuwaiti travellers.
The Kuwaiti brothers were travelling home for the funeral of a family member when the incident happened, explained Brigadier Hamouda Belsuwaida Al Ameri, Director of the General Department of Airport Security.
The duo were deeply distressed and realised they had left behind their valuables at DXB's Terminal 1 only after their boarded the flight.
Since they were unable to leave the aircraft, they contacted their sister who had dropped them off at the airport.
After she filed a missing bag report, a team of officers were quick to locate the bag and hand it over to her after following all legal steps.
