Police case for a bounced security deposit cheque
Hi,
Recently I've found out that I have a case in Rashidiya Police Station. My landlord filed a case against my deposit cheque.
I was surprised by how they managed to file a case on my security deposit if it has been encashed already, and after encashing the cheque, file a case against me using the cheque copy.
I don't think this is legal. I should be the one claiming it back as the property has been vacated already and I should get back my security deposit.
Please advise on this case
Dear Questioner,
With reference to your inquiry, kindly be informed that as per the given info, you shall visit the police station and clarify the entire issue.
You shall be having a Statement of Account which proves that the Landlord has previously encashed the same cheque.
After you get the whole matter sorted out, you can sue him civilly for his fraudulent actions.
Kind regards,
Sherif M. ElKhatib
