Legal action against the husband for abandoning wife and child
I am a resident of Dubai. I want to ask about my husband who brought me from Dubai along with my 3-year-old son by fraud to spend a vacation in Pakistan in Dec 2019.
He forcefully took over child passport and other documents of UAE visa and left us alone in Pakistan and runaway back to UAE.
I am on an employment visa and my son is under his father's visa. I need to come back, but my husband is keeping the passport in Dubai with him and he is not ready to give it back to me.
I am stuck in Pakistan as I need to bring my son to UAE. Now he threatens that he misplaced all my personal belongings; my gold, jewellery and important documents in my absence from home in Dubai.
He wants to divorce me in Pakistan; that's why he is forcing me to stay in Pakistan so I cannot file a maintenance and child care claim in Dubai.
If I come back to Dubai, can I get help to get my son's passport from him in order to bring him to the UAE because the child can't live without his mother?
Dear questioner,
As a resident of UAE, you can file a case in Dubai courts for the above-mentioned incident and request the court for the same.
Kindly contact us via phone for a detailed discussion or write us an email for further assistance.

Immediately file a police complaint in Pakistan and report it as stolen and apply for a new passport.
Then come on a visit visa and have your visa stamped on the new passport and then file a case against your husband.

Dear Madam,
You need to issue a replacement of a lost passport in Pakistan for your son's passport, then you come to the UAE and open a case against him.
