As Ramadan approaches, rulers of various emirates across the UAE have begun providing a new opportunity for prisoners to start anew.
This, as President His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan earlier pardoned over 1,511 prisoners in Abu Dhabi ahead of the fasting month that aims to enhance family cohesion and bonds, brings about happiness to mothers and children and provides released prisoners with an opportunity to re-think about their future and return to the righteous path that allows them to lead a successful social and professional life.
Ajman
His Highness Sheikh Humaid bin Rashid Al Nuaimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Ajman, has ordered the release of 124 prisoners, who have demonstrated good conduct during their sentences in punitive and corrective institutions in the emirate, on the occasion of Ramadan.
The move comes as part of His Highness Sheikh Humaid’s keenness to give the pardoned inmates, who belong to various nationalities, an opportunity to start a new life and ease the suffering of their families.
Um Al Quwain
His Highness Sheikh Saud bin Rashid Al Mu’alla, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Umm Al Quwain has ordered the release of a number of prisoners, serving various jail sentences in punitive and corrective institutions in the emirate, on the occasion of Ramadan.
The move comes as part of Sheikh Saud’s keenness to give pardoned inmates an opportunity to start a new life and ease the suffering of their families.
