Filing a labour complaint against a free zone company for non-payment of salary

I am working in a Dubai based company (free zone) for 3 years now. I have not been paid my salary for past 7 months.

My employer has lots of influence and is not afraid if I file a case on him. If I resign I'm afraid he wouldn't pay me anything.

I'm in desperate need of money. Please help.

Don't worry and file a labour case. Free zones are very strict and your interest will be protected.

Thank you.

Could you please guide me through the process of filling this case. Also, what would be the charges for the proceedings?

Please go to the labour section/department of the free zone. The charges are very nominal, I'm not sure of the fee.
