Checking a bounced cheque case and paying fines from outside the UAE

Hi,

I have a cheque bounce case filed against me by the bank in Dubai. The bank is not willing to negotiate at all no matter the solution offered.

How do I pay the fine to resolve the case with Dubai Police while being outside the country? Will I be able to get a visit visa with a pending criminal case?

I would require a visit visa to enter the UAE again. Kindly advise with the possible options to pay the police fine being outside the country.

[Cheque value AED 95,000 and the fine is AED 5,000].

Hello.

In this case, it is better to issue a Power of Attorney to someone in order to close the case in Police station and continue negotiations with the bank afterwards.
