إمكانية رفع دعوى ضد شخص بعد تحويل مبلغ له لإرساله لآخر

1
س: السلام عليكم،
تواصل معي شخص على الهاتف وطلب مني خدمة إنسانية. يريد مني إرسال نقود إلى سوريا بحكم إقامتي بين دبي وسوريا على أن يودع المبلغ في حسابي في الإمارات. وبالفعل أودع المبلغ في حسابي وقمت بتسليم الأمانة.
يوجد بيني وبين هذا الشخص محادثات على الواتساب تفيد بأنه أودع المبلغ في حسابي، ولكن لا يوجد إثبات أنني قمت بتسليم الأمانة.
هل يمكن له أن يشتكيني ويدّعي أنني لم أسلِّم الأمانة؟

View allTerminating an employee after sick leave and claiming compensation 0
Hello,
My employer fired me under Article 44 for not showing up for work for 7 days in a row. But that’s not the case at all. I was sick and the management was aware and they let me go.
I went to another country to get treatment because it’s expensive in Dubai. My employer did not pay me my salary for the month I worked and fired me.
I have official sick leave from another country and there is correspondence where my employer sent me to another country for treatment.
The problem is that the employer says that he will take compensation for the training that was specified in the contract, but I did not undergo training at all; I immediately started work from the first day of work and there was no training.
Does my employer have the right to charge me such a fee and not pay my salary?

How to cancel the MoU to buy an apartment with the broker if the bank did not approve the loan? 0
Hi,
I have a situation where I signed an MoU and gave my security deposit to the seller's agent. However later, the bank valuation of the property is lower than the selling price.
On my MoU, it has a clause that “the buyer has a right to cancel/negotiate if the bank valuation is not the same as MoU.” I tried to negotiate, however, we didn't agree on the price so I asked to cancel.
Now the agent is threatening me that they will not cancel the MoU and that will deposit my cheque. Later I also came to know that the person I am dealing with is not the same person whose name is mentioned as a broker in the MoU.
The agent I am dealing with is constantly messaging me with threats. I decided not to speak to him and instead, I wrote an email to the broker whose name is mentioned on the MoU but received no response.
I am on a very tight timeline as I need to vacate my apartment in 3 weeks, I found another unit but I don't know if I can pursue this while the initial MoU still not canceled.
Please, I need advice.

رفض منح تأشيرة دخول إلى الإمارات لدواعي أمنية 0
السلام عليكم أستاذ محمد.
لقد زرت دبي 3 مرات في 2014 و2016 و2017 بتأشيرة زيارة بدون أي مشاكل.
وعندما قدمت علي تأشيرة زيارة هذا العام، فوجئت بالرفض لأسباب أمنية مع العلم أنه في المرات الثلاث السابقة لم يكن عندي أي مخالفات. وعندما بحثت مع مسؤول العلاقات الحكومية في الشركة، أفادني أن عندي حظر لمدى الحياة.
أرجو الإفادة والحل مع العلم أنه لا يوجد لي أي سوابق أو مشاكل أمنية في مصر أو خارجها.

What you need to know while purchasing a new apartment 0
Hi, I am planning to buy a ready apartment in a 2-year-old building.
How can I check for any dues on that apartment, would NOC suffice that the mortgage or any dues are cleared?
How can I check that the seller does not have court cases against him in relation to property?
How do the Service Charges get decided every year, as I understand that it is decided by Dubai Land Department who has defined the Service Index?
Should I hire a lawyer to look out all legal aspects and help me till I get the property transferred to me? If yes, then what is the average cost for this service?
Regards,
Gufran
