Bernama pic.KEPALA BATAS (Penang): Seven-year-old leukemia-stricken Mohamad Ammar Dhani Mohd Azuan today got what he had wished for – a ride in a police patrol car, with sirens blaring.
He got more than he had bargained for during the 10-minute ride. With him and his mother Nur Syazwani Mazlan, 30, was district police chief Noorzainy Mohd Noor.
“It was exciting. I have always wanted to ride in a police car because I want to be a policeman. I want to catch criminals. My thanks to the police for taking me in the patrol car,” Ammar Dhani told reporters after the ride.
He has end-stage leukemia after having been diagnosed with the cancer at the age of two.
He is the eldest of four children. Nur Syazwani said his health had deteriorated lately and he is being cared for at their home in Bakar Bata, Penaga, here. Her three other children are girls, aged 4, 3 and nine months.
She said Ammar Dhani has an obsession with toy police cars and has always asked her and her husband, Mohamad Azuan Abdul Mutalib, 33, to buy these cars for him. Mohamad Azuan, a technician with a private firm, could not be present today as he was away at work.
“We did not know how to fulfil his wish to ride in a police patrol car. I asked a policewoman friend at the police headquarters and she related the matter to the chief,” she said.
Noorzainy said he decided to help fulfil the boy’s wish because it was the responsibility of the police to help the community. “We wish him well,” he said. - FMT
