At the start of the credits it says: "Al-Ittihad Films extends its great thanks and deep appreciation to the Minister of the Interior and to the commanders, officers, non-commissioned officers and soldiers of the various police units, without whose sincere cooperation and actual participation in producing this film, it could not have been made in the best possible form. Al-Ittihad Films hopes that, for its part, it has succeeded in achieving its aim in producing this film: to introduce people to the policeman and the heavy burdens placed on his shoulders; to show them that the policeman is a human being like them, who loves and hates like them, is happy and miserable like them, laughs and cries like them, except that his work and duty often prevent him from yielding to his human emotions, which makes some people think he is made of a different clay from theirs... But if they knew the motives behind his actions as they truly are, they would honor him, love him, and help him carry out his mission, which is summed up in this: the policeman is in the service of the people and the nation.".
