Q: Hi I was in Al Barsha Police Station for 3 days following a report. They released me and said I was free to go. I tried to leave the country on Saturday and at the airport, they told me I have a travel ban. Can you help me get it removed, please? Thank you.

Q: One year ago, an accident happened at my site. A laborer's both hands were fractured during marble unloading and I took to him to hospital. I was helping him even he was not working under my department. But when the police came, they took my ID and details. After that, there was no follow-up. The company paid the hospital expenses and gave him the job back after sick leave. Now the situation is that I resigned from the company and I was traveling back to India. At the airport check-in, they told me I have a travel ban. How can I close this case and lift my travel ban?
