What comes after the payment of a fine and release in a bounced cheque case
I have a case from Dunia Finance regarding a bounced cheque amounting AED 50,000 and I was caught and detained in Abu Dhabi for 3 days.
They give me a bail for AED 2000 and I was released. What should happen after this, and how do I know if I am cleared or I need to attend in court?
Please advise what will happen to my case after paying the bail.
Thanks and regards,
Ramel
Dear Ramel,
Be informed that the bail is only due to breaching the general system of the country and the law, and hence this is only a penalty.
But the complainant still has the right to file a civil case against you, to claim the total amount of AED 50,000, plus the delay interest of around %9 from the total amount claimed.
This is for your kind information in advance, and do not be hesitate to contact me on my email "ms@elnaggarlegal.com".
Regards,
