Q: My ex-boyfriend and I broke up last Feb 2016 and now he is back, stalking me at my workplace and sending me threat messages. I am afraid to file a complaint with the police as it might just land me into trouble since he is an ex-boyfriend.
Please advice. Thank you.

Visa renewal while the passport is in custody of police

Q: Hello
I have an issue with my sister's boyfriend (Emirati man). My nationality is Croatian.
My sister stays pregnant with him in a non-marriage relationship. He rejects her and he stops any contact with her.
One time I called him to ask why he does that. After few days, the police called me and told me how he opened a case against me. He told the police I want to kill him through the mafia.
I spent 3 nights in custody, I spoke with the public prosecutor, with a judge. They keep my passport and now after one month, I don't know what is the result of all that case. My residence visa expires, I want to solve this.
Please advise me.
Regards

What is the responsibility of the employee?
The employment contract is set to conclude on 31st May 2025. The employee initiated discussions regarding a salary increment approximately 30 days prior, during which the management engaged in meetings with the employee but ultimately decided to maintain the current salary.
The employee subsequently chose not to renew or continue the employment, this decision having been finalized in a meeting held on 20th May 2025.

Specifically:
1) Would the grace period (30 days after the contract/visa ends) be considered as fulfilling the notice period requirement?
2) Is the employee entitled to request a different salary during this grace or notice period?

Can I be sued for posting an honest 1-star review about an upsetting experience? 0
Hello,
I recently made a Google review (and gave 1 star) regarding a grooming gone wrong to my fur baby's long, beautiful coat. Everything was done badly and so wrong; it was so upsetting and disappointing.
The owner reached out and gave some free vitamins to my baby boy and even offered to share my résumé with his contacts because I am currently searching for a job.
After an hour, the owner called asking me to delete my review. I messaged him not to pressure me or force me into doing something I don’t want to do, and told him I didn’t expect he wanted me to delete the review in exchange for the vitamins he gave for my fur baby.
I updated my review and mentioned that I appreciated the gesture. But he called again, threatening that his business partner might file a case against me.
Can they really do that to me, even if I didn’t directly ask for the vitamins and I didn’t say any bad word against their company?
I just made an honest review based on an upsetting and frustrating grooming service.
