Rejection of clearance certificate for a previous cheque case

Hi,

I am outside of the UAE.

I had a previous case for a bounced cheque with a bank in Dubai, going in front of the judge I was ordered to pay a fine, which I did and the case was cleared and I left the UAE.

I have applied for an online police clearance certificate but it was rejected, does this mean there is an open case or due to the old case?
