How can I get my pending salary and labour rights and remove absconding case?

Good day.

I just want some help and advice regarding my case.

Last July, my employer sent me to jail. After holding me for a week, the court found me innocent and sent me out of jail.

After I cleared my case at the court and took my passport, the CID called my employer to cancel my visa, they said that they will cancel it and also bring our things to the embassy, as well as our pending salary.

But until now they didn't do it. I went to immigration to check my status but they told me my employer filed me absconding after I cleared my case.

I filed a complaint to the labor as well and they proceeded to the court, but I didn't get any response yet.

What should I do to proceed with my complaint?

And is there any possibility to clear my absconding because I have court documents when they sent me to jail before?

Best regards,

R.

Delay questioner,

You need to follow up and prove your employer's bad faith and dishonesty by all means, and you need to show the court that your employer has made a malicious petition against you just to get you to waive your rights.

You can also sue your employer for compensation for the damages of wrongful imprisonment based on his false accusation.

We strongly recommend that you appoint a lawyer to take both cases forward on your behalf.
