Q: Hi.
My wife left the UAE without informing her company, so it means she is absconding. She doesn't have any debts with the banks or whatsoever.
Now, the problem is that my wife is scheduled to go to another country and her company is threatening her that they will file a complaint and block her from going to another country.
Is it possible to block her plans even though she’s out of the UAE already?
Thank you.

I have left Dubai 10 years ago with unpaid loans in the UAE worth around 1 million AED,
I know for a fact that I have a police case against me, but there is no Interpol red notice issued. My question is that if I have a connecting flight through Qatar, will I get arrested at Qatar Airport during layover/connection for my police case in the UAE?

Can the bank ask me to sign a blank cheque to withdraw a civil case for unpaid loan?


0
Q: Hello
Is it customary that during the settlement of a personal loan, the bank asks you to sign a blank cheque?
I am no longer a UAE resident. The bank filed a civil case and went through direct execution.
Now that we are in settlement talk, they want a down payment and ask me to sign a blank cheque in case I default on the settlement agreement.
Previously, they made me sign a blank cheque and made me believe it was necessary in order to restructure the loan, but it was not their true intent.
The question is should I sign again a blank cheque as part of the settlement agreement?

If someone has a case in the UAE, can they travel to another GCC country?

Q: Hi.
One of my friends joined a Telegram group. They said, "We will transfer some amount to your account, and your task is to transfer this amount to another account. Once the task is completed, you will get 30 or 50 AED per task."
He completed 3 to 4 tasks, but he realized it was not good, so he stopped. After one week, when he opened his account, it was blocked, and the bank said, "We are conducting an investigation; after this, we will let you know."
After some days, he had an accident and went to his home country. He then received a call from a landline number, which was from the Abu Dhabi police station.
They said, "We have received a complaint against you; come to our investigation department." However, due to his surgery and treatment, he could not go.
After some time, his bank account was reopened, and he did not receive any further calls. I want to know, if he comes back to the UAE or goes to any other GCC country, will he face any problems?
If someone has a case in the UAE, can they travel to another GCC country?
Please advise!

View allTerminating an employee after sick leave and claiming compensation 0
Hello,
My employer fired me under Article 44 for not showing up for work for 7 days in a row. But that’s not the case at all. I was sick and the management was aware and they let me go.
I went to another country to get treatment because it’s expensive in Dubai. My employer did not pay me my salary for the month I worked and fired me.
I have official sick leave from another country and there is correspondence where my employer sent me to another country for treatment.
The problem is that the employer says that he will take compensation for the training that was specified in the contract, but I did not undergo training at all; I immediately started work from the first day of work and there was no training.
Does my employer have the right to charge me such a fee and not pay my salary?

Should the seller in Dubai hand over their tenant's security deposit to the buyer upon completing a sale?
Who is responsible for managing this process?
At the time of the exchange, the broker said he would follow up with the seller and collect the deposit.
He hasn’t, and the seller has not handed over the deposit.

How to cancel the MoU to buy an apartment with the broker if the bank did not approve the loan? 0
Hi,
I have a situation where I signed an MoU and gave my security deposit to the seller's agent. However later, the bank valuation of the property is lower than the selling price.
On my MoU, it has a clause that “the buyer has a right to cancel/negotiate if the bank valuation is not the same as MoU.” I tried to negotiate, however, we didn't agree on the price so I asked to cancel.
Now the agent is threatening me that they will not cancel the MoU and that will deposit my cheque. Later I also came to know that the person I am dealing with is not the same person whose name is mentioned as a broker in the MoU.
The agent I am dealing with is constantly messaging me with threats. I decided not to speak to him and instead, I wrote an email to the broker whose name is mentioned on the MoU but received no response.
I am on a very tight timeline as I need to vacate my apartment in 3 weeks, I found another unit but I don't know if I can pursue this while the initial MoU still not canceled.
Please, I need advice.
