Q: Hi. I kept my passport as a guarantee for a friend in the public prosecution more than a year back. He left the country without telling me and hasn't come back into the country so far. In the meantime, verdicts were declared for his cases and he has to go to jail. So, he refuses to come back or settle the case. I am stuck here with my passport in court. I have tried setting up meetings with the public prosecutor but every time the online application gets rejected, even for a meeting with the public prosecutor. This has created a big issue for me and my family. Is there anything I can do to get my passport out?

س: مرحبًا، لقد قدمت جواز سفري إلى محاكم الشارقة من أجل ضمان شريكي (قضية شيكات مرتجعة) منذ ستة أشهر تقريبًا. أحتاج إلى استرداد جواز سفري لتجديد تأشيرتي. أتطلع إلى الحصول على المشورة من محام.
