Claiming security cheque and gratuity held by employer upon resignation
1
Q: I joined a Dubai based company as GM in May 2016 and resigned with a one-month notice from 1-05-17 to 31-05-17.
My boss told me to prepare accounts and clear issues ‘AFTER MY RESIGNATION’ (Used these words specifically in a letter) and took a security cheque (Blank dated) with a letter signed to this effect.
Within 37 days I compiled that data with satisfaction on 7-06-2017, and in the presence of auditors, my boss processed my visa cancellation. My boss advised verbally to collect my gratuity and security cheque later on.
After one month of cancellation, my boss filed a complaint in the Labour Department that I joined his competitors whom I started working with them.
Four months after cancellation, he deposited my security cheque in the bank without my knowledge and it was dishonoured. I filed a complaint in Labour, but the matter was referred to the court.
My boss did not recruit a new GM for the last five months, and things got messed up. Now, he is putting all the blame on me for his mismanagement and I am working in a new company now.
I want my security cheque back with my Gratuity. Please advise.

هل يمكنني المطالبة بمستحقات مكافأة نهاية الخدمة بعد التوقيع على تسوية استقالة؟
5
س: مرحبًا سيدي،
عملت مديرًا للحسابات لصالح شركة سفريات لمدة 3 سنوات، وعندما أردت العودة إلى بلدي استقلت من عملي في شهر يوليو 2017. لم يدفع صاحب عملي مستحقاتي ولم يقم بإجراء أي تسوية نهائية.
وقعت على استمارة نهاية الخدمة لإلغاء تأشيرتي بناءً على ثقتي في صاحب العمل. وعدني أن يدفع مكافأة نهاية الخدمة بمجرد أن تلغى التأشيرة. بدأ في مضايقتي بقوله أنني قد تلاعبت بحساباته وسرقت ماله وعذبني.
في النهاية أجبرني على التوقيع على مستند أنني قد سويت أخطائي التي تقدر بمبلغ 50000 درهم إماراتي على ورقة بيضاء وأعطاني جواز سفري وغادرت دبي في يوليو. عليّ قرض بمبلغ 30000 درهم إماراتي، بالإضافة إلى 10000 مستحقات بطاقة ائتمان للبنوك الذين يقومون بملاحقتي لسداد تلك المستحقات.
هل هناك ما أستطيع فعله للحصول على مالي؟ برجاء مساعدتي، أرغب في سداد ديوني في دبي.
شكرًا مقدمًا.
مع التحية

How can victims file a group case for fraud, bounced cheques, and misuse of credit cards? 0
Hello,
I would like to ask for legal advice regarding a fraud case in Abu Dhabi involving multiple victims. The suspect issued bounced cheques, received AED with a promise to exchange it into IDR but failed to deliver, misused other people’s credit cards, and operated an unlicensed travel/tour business.
Many clients paid for Umrah or vacation packages that never happened. The total loss is significant, and many victims have evidence such as WhatsApp chats, bank transfers, and bounced cheques.
We believe this involves a breach of trust and embezzlement. We would like to know if we can file a group case, what legal steps to take, and the cost of legal representation.
Thank you!
