Refund of money paid for purchasing a beauty salon that never happened

Hi,

We are planning to buy a beauty salon and we have given the owner a deposit of AED 20k. After a week he asked for another AED 50k as he has dues that need to be settled with the landlord.

He gave us a cheque for AED 50k which bounced because the account has been closed a long time back as per the bank. It’s been 49 days and the transfer is not done yet. Can we file a civil case and ask for moral damage as we lost a lot of money since the business is not operating yet? Can we still get our AED 70k that we had given to him?

Yes, you are entitled to get the refund in case the other party has not kept its promises. We will need evidence to prove the same. Let me know if you require any further clarification.
