How to remove an absconding case filed by my company that closed without notifying us?

I was working with a company and it was closed without giving us any notice or document. I’m still under their visa and it’s gonna expire next month.

So I contacted the ministry of labor to ask for their help and get the cancellation paper because the company closed and all the contact numbers not working.

Then the labor sent me a cancellation paper asking me to take it to immigration and get the cancellation. When I went to the immigration, they said I have an absconding case.

But I’m still on the company visa and they are the one closed everything without informing us.

What can I do to this case and how to remove absconding from my side because I didn’t do anything wrong?

You can call MOHRE and raise a request to remove absconding.

I contacted them and they said labor side I don’t have an absconding or a fine, and to check with the immigration side.

I should go to Al Awir immigration. If I go there to ask about the problem and how to remove this, can they catch me and put me in jail?

Or is it ok to go and try to solve the problem?

Hi

You will have to check with the immigration in which police station was the absconding filed and then have to complain in the MOHRE for your rights.

You will also need to prove that you were in the country and were never absconding.
