س: لقد كنت ضحية احتيال في عملية تداول للعملات المشفرة وحاولت تقديم بلاغ للشرطة في عدة مناسبات. ومع ذلك، استمروا في رفض شكواي. هل يمكن تقديم الشكوى بواسطة ممثل قانوني؟ ربما يأخذون الأمر على محمل الجد.

س: سيدي العزيز / سيدتي العزيزة، يتعلق الأمر بالعملات المشفرة. في 26 يناير 2022، قمت بعقد صفقة على منصة Binance لبيع رموز تشفير بقيمة 100.000 درهم إماراتي لشخص (مشترية). وفقًا لذلك، استلمت الأموال وتم إصدار الرموز المميزة للعملات المشفرة. لكن الأموال التي حصلت عليها كانت من حساب أختها كما أخبرتني المشترية. لقد طلبت بطاقة الهوية الإماراتية لكلا الشخصين وأعطيت العملة المشفرة للمشترية بحسن نية. في 31 يناير 2022، علمت أن الطرف (أختها) الذي حول الأموال إلى البنك الذي أتعامل معه قد أصبح ضحية احتيال في التجارة الإلكترونية، وتم اختراق حسابها من قبل مشتري Binance الذي حول الأموال إلي بحجة صاحب الحساب البنكي الآخر. لقد تم تجميد حسابي البنكي بناءً على شكوى من الطرف الآخر الذي تم اختراق بياناته المصرفية، كما أواجه منعًا من السفر حاليًا. لقد سجلت أيضًا شكوى بشأن جريمة إلكترونية في 1 فبراير 2022. يرجى التواصل إذا كان بإمكانك المساعدة في إزالة المنع من السفر.

Q: I had a misdemeanor case against another accused whom I don't know. The first video call court hearing was on 23 Oct, and the first accused came with his lawyer but I couldn't afford a lawyer. During the hearing, it was very difficult for me to make the judge understand I was not guilty as I don't speak Arabic and the translator also couldn't help that much, since the case is related to crypto buy & sell. Seems they don't understand it properly. So after the first hearing, I checked what the case status was showing. It was decided to postpone the session to 11/06/2024 to submit a defense memorandum for the first accused (the other accused) with the arrest and bringing of the accused. Now they issued arrest warrants against both of us. I am so scared now, please someone guide me on what I can do now. Is there any chance to hire a lawyer now? What is going to happen at the next hearing? Will the police arrest me and take me to the court on the next hearing which is on 6 November?

Q: Hello, Hope this message finds you well! I am seeking legal advice regarding my financial situation as a forex trader living in the UAE under a sponsor work visa. Currently, I do not work for any company and earn my income primarily through cryptocurrency trading. However, I would like to ensure that I can legally receive and withdraw approximately AED 15,000 per month into my UAE bank account without raising any suspicion from the bank. My main concerns are: I am a forex trader and earn money through cryptocurrency, which I then exchange into fiat currency (AED). How can I ensure that the process of depositing this income into my bank account is transparent and compliant with UAE laws to avoid any issues with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations? Since I do not have a formal job or salary, how should I go about documenting or explaining my income to the bank to avoid any red flags regarding the source of my funds? Are there any specific steps I need to take to ensure my deposits are compliant?

The new law is applicable to all entities dealing with virtual assets that are set up on the mainland as well as free zones, including special development zones.

A legal concept upheld by the Federal Supreme Court states that drug use is not prosecuted by UAE courts if the offense occurred abroad. A positive drug test is accepted as proof of drug use, but it does not reveal whether the drug use occurred domestically or abroad. It is necessary to establish the crime's location in order to decide if the UAE courts have the authority to investigate it or if foreign courts should have jurisdiction over it.
