The script on the flag image states "ash-Shurta," meaning
"Police."

I was in Dubai in December 2006 and took some photos of the police flag and
emblem I found there. You will see from this
photo that the police flag has a green, not blue, background with the emblem
in yellow. I was in more than one Emirate and saw the same police flag flying in
Emirates other than Dubai, so I assumed it was the UAE Police flag and emblem,
rather than being for a specific emirate.

According to Crampton 1989a, p. 83, the flag of the
United Arab Emirates police is "blue with national flag in the canton and police badge in the fly".

The question arises
about the blue flag with canton and badge reported by Crampton 1989a
(see above) - was it an erroneous report, an obsolete flag, or an ensign just
for police vessels (the latter just conjecture on my part, but the pattern does
suggest it)?

About the UAE police flag I suspect that the flag can be blue without the
federal flag in canton, but I'm not sure. Others flags were changed by moving
the federal flag out of the canton.

I recently saw a photo of a parade of the Female Police in Abu Dhabi, and they bear a
flag as that of Nigeria, but it probably is the flag of the
Women Police of the United Arab Emirates.
