A senior Dubai police official has slammed Pakistani authorities and community for failing to curb drug smuggling from their homeland to Gulf states.

Head of General Security for Dubai, Dhahi Khalfan, tweeted, "The Pakistanis pose a serious threat to the Gulf communities because they bring drugs to our countries."

His comments came after Dubai authorities arrested a gang of Pakistanis involved in smuggling drugs.

Khalfan who is known for his controversial statements in a series of Twitter messages also advised UAE nationals to not employ Pakistanis, who have deep historic relations with the region through cultural and religious ties.

The senior Dubai police official also went ahead to compare Pakistanis with Indians. “Why Indians are disciplined? While sedition, criminality and smuggling in the Pakistani community are rampant,” he tweeted.
