Can I leave the country while a criminal case is ongoing?

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have a criminal case in progress regarding a check issued after my bank account was closed. There was another case for the same issue in civil court.

I won the execution case in civil court because the check was stolen. However, the criminal case is still ongoing.

My question is, can I apply to leave the country temporarily while the criminal case is ongoing? If so, how will this work?

Thanks!

Dear Questioner,

If the criminal case is ongoing, they may issue a travel ban.

We need to check the status of the case and let you know.

Please send your case number and a copy of your passport.

Dear Questioner,

You can travel if the judge issues a decision to lift the travel ban because you are often banned from traveling now.

The judge may agree to lift the travel ban if you can provide a financial or personal guarantee.
