How to get the security deposit from landlord after finishing all proceedings?

The landlord has not returned my security deposit worth AED 5000. I filed a case and have judicial announcements that the landlord should return deposit+expenses. But still no response.

The landlord is out of the UAE and his property is handled by the agent. Not sure how to get my money back while I followed all procedures, even filed an execution case but no response.

While I keep paying to follow up on the case, the property is rented out to the next tenant and earning money. I feel like this system is created like this on purpose.

Dear Questioner,

If the property manager has a power of attorney from the landlord, you might want to request the court to communicate the execution file to the property manager to assist you in enforcing the judgment in your favor.

Best of luck
