Can you sue somebody for recording a phone conversation between you without consent?

Hello,

I just finished a phone call with another individual, and I was told by a third party that the conversation was recorded without my consent.

I am deeply unhappy with the fact this has been done, and I would like to know what legal recourse is available to me to resolve this matter.

Thank you.

A.

Dear Questioner,

Recording a conversation without consent is a punishable crime in the UAE.

You can file a criminal complaint against the individual, however, we would need more details before we give you appropriate legal advice.

You can contact us on our phone to discuss this matter in detail.

Regards.
