2
Q: Hi there,
I got deported from the UAE for failing medical but when I reached my country, I have done several medical checkups but everything is OK; HIV negative, no hepatitis B, etc.
I don't know if there was a mistake or a misfortune for me. I am wondering if they can allow me to come back to Dubai.

Wrongfully accused of assault. How to prove innocence?

1
Q: Greetings,
In 2018, I was wrongfully accused of assault. My colleague got into a fight with a local man outside of a restaurant. I never got involved but was somehow accused of assaulting this person.
When I spoke to the prosecutor, I mentioned that there were several CCTV cameras that would prove that I never assaulted anybody but was told that "the CCTV cameras weren't working on that day".
I was jailed for 20 Days, released on bail, and left the UAE without going to court in fear for my life. I recently requested my records which indicate an arrest warrant, 20,000 AED fine, 2 months in Jail, and a deportation order.
I understand that the best way to have this settled is to file an appeal and appear before the judge. My biggest concern is what happens once I arrive in the UAE for the appeal.
Will I be arrested and jailed again and potentially in a worse situation than before?
I really would like to finally get this properly resolved so if anyone has any suggestions, I would love some advice.
Thanks!

Can I claim compensation if I've been falsely accused of a crime?

Q: There was a criminal complaint made against me and my husband and both of our passports were held by the public prosecution. After 8 months of investigations, the public prosecution has now only charged my husband and has released my passport.
Can I open a case against the complainant for the harassment that I faced for 8 long months and mental trauma that I went through?
My request for releasing my passport by substituting someone else's was also rejected 4 times without giving any reason within this period and I could not travel even though my child and my mom were unwell.

Is the compensation for notice period deducted on the basis of full salary or basic salary? 0
Hello,
I understand that if anyone wishes to resign without serving their full notice period, they are supposed to compensate the employer for the remaining time that they didn't serve the notice, also known as "notice Compensation".
Is this notice compensation deducted based on the full salary or on the basic salary?

Can I hold the delivery of goods to a buyer outside the UAE if he defaulted on payment? 0
I, as a UAE-based Seller, entered a sales agreement with a KSA-based Buyer. The Buyer defaulted on the LC payment, breaching the contract.
The goods are stuck at the port as they need original documents, which I am holding to recover the outstanding balance.
They later made a partial payment but now threaten to cash the PBG (UAE bank) I provided if don't release the document.
The contract mandates DIAC arbitration but lacks a governing law clause. I need advice on:
1. Which law applies to this dispute?
2. Where can I seek an injunction to prevent PBG encashment, given the Buyer’s bad faith and breach? Or should I send a letter to their bank with the brief above?
Kindly advise.

Hello,
If I take unpaid leave and a weekend falls in between, will the weekend also be counted as unpaid leave, meaning I will not receive a salary for those weekend days?
Thank you!
