رحم الله اللواء خليفة بن ضاعن المهيري، وأسكنه فسيح جناته ..

من رجالات الوطن المخلصين .. ومن قادة شرطة دبي المتفانين.. ومن أوفى من كرّس مسيرته لأسرة آل مكتوم والمواطنين خلال خمسة عقود من العمل المتواصل ..

لا تنسى دبي رجالاتها .. رحمك الله يا أبا محمد وألهم أهلك وأحبابك الصبر… pic.twitter.com/My22wJQazP
