Filing bounced cheques cases to force payment

What is the jail term for a criminal case of a cheque totalling amount of 1,330,000/-, 9 cheques of AED 40,000/-, 12 cheques of AED 50,000/-, 1 cheque of AED 120,000/- (all on the personal name), & 1 cheque of AED 250,000/- (on the company's name) in Sharjah?

Could we file a civil suit for the same as the person doesn't get released until he pays & clears the cheque amounts?

Are we also eligible to claim the damages & losses?

How much could be claimed for damages?

Please define with your best knowledge.

Thanking you for your kind cooperation.
