هل من القانوني تسجيل محادثة شخص ما دون موافقته في الإمارات؟

مرحبًا،

هل يجوز تسجيل محادثات الأشخاص هنا في الإمارات، خاصة إذا أدرك الشخصان اللذان يتحدثان أن هناك شخص آخر غير حاضر يقوم بتسجيل محادثاتهما وقررا ترك هاتفهما في الغرفة والتسجيل؟

ما هو الإجراء القانوني الذي يمكنني اتخاذه هنا في الإمارات؟

Welcome,

Have a good day.

Recording phone calls is a crime punishable by the Anti-Cyber ​​Crime Law and the Federal Penal Code, as a crime of violating the privacy of others without their consent.

It may lead to imprisonment and a fine of not less than 150,000 dirhams and not more than 500,000 dirhams, or one of these two penalties.

You can appoint a lawyer to file a lawsuit.

Dear,

Privacy is a constitutional right and the recording of a conversation without the consent of the parties involved is considered an illegal act as per the UAE Penal Code.

One may go to the Police and file a claim or file a case in the Courts with the relevant jurisdiction. Available punishments are fine or detention

 

Regards,
