Getting the amount of a bounced cheque after car buying fraud
I sold my car and the buyer gave me a cheque. The cheque bounced because the account is closed. He is doing this as a regular business.
I have already filed a complaint to the police station and I'm waiting for the judgment from the court. Maybe he will get the fine only.
How can I get my money?
Which case should I file: a civil case or a car buying fraud case?
He may not have anything under his name. If a civil case is filed against him, he knows how to avoid this case .This person has more than 14 cases. Recently, he got out of jail. The issuer of the cheque is a local Emirati guy.
Has the mulkiya of the car been transferred? If yes, there is very little you can do for a cheque bounce case against an Emirati.
You can file a civil case but that will cost you 5-6% court fees + lawyers fees + accounting expert fees of up to AED10000.
What was the value of the car?
