Q: Hello,
I have one pending loan and I'm planning to move to Saudi Arabia, as I got a job there. I have never been a defaulter, I closed all the cards and have one consolidated loan with the bank.
As long as I am paying the bank my EMI every month, it should not be an issue outside the UAE, right?
Please clarify this.
will I be able to leave the country?
Will the company be able to process my visa?
I have always made payments on time, but due to the change of job, I need to move to Saudia Arabia.

I have received a judgment in my favor from RDC that awarded me legal fees.
However, RDC says that legal fees do not mean lawyer fees; they are RDC fees only.

The public prosecution appealed a judgment to increase the fine I already paid. What do I do now? 0
Good afternoon,
Thank you for your time.
The public prosecution appealed my judgment (a fine that I satisfactorily cleared) and requested increasing the fine.
Can you please explain what happens during a criminal case appeal hearing for me as a defendant?
Will I be asked questions?
Is the hearing just for the Public Prosecution to present their appeal to the judge, and I do not need to give a response?
Thank you again for your time.
