Ex-employer threatens to prevent employee from leaving country. What to do?

Hi Madam,

One of my colleagues is working in Dubai. He has planned to visit his home country with his old visa canceled.

He has a new employer's visa. While he was trying to book a ticket, his previous employer threatened him not to leave and said that they would file a case against him.

Is this possible? Can you please guide us?

Hi Madam,

Thanks for your response!

Actually, his old visa was canceled, and he has a new visa now. He is facing issues with booking a ticket, and his previous employer is threatening him that he will not be allowed to leave the country.

If labor and visa are canceled, meaning the old employer agreed on cancellation, and he has no debts or obligations in front of the employer in writing, or cheque issued, etc, then he has no obstacles to leave the country.

If so, in what cases would he not be able to travel to his own country?

Dear,

It is very difficult to answer.

There could be other circumstances, such as those we mentioned, or maybe others.

In order to understand the situation, we need to know under what conditions the cancellation happened, and why he received such a threat from his ex-employer.

Please have your friend send us an email and we will do our best to give the most accurate advice.

Regards,
