Q: I have a bachelor's degree from a Canadian university, but I live in Pakistan now. I will be moving to Dubai in a couple of months, and intend to work there. Can my Canadian degree be attested in Pakistan? If not, what would be the procedure, and how much will it cost? Thanks!

Q: A person living in Sharjah took the fake degree to the foreign office of Pakistan in Sharjah for attestation. All the attestation in Pakistan were forged, however, the foreign office in Sharjah only object the UAE embassy stamp, and handed over the person to Police. Then he was presented to the court. Now the court orders that person to present the duplicate degree with the original stamp of UAE embassy. The problem is that the degree is fake, how can a duplicate be obtained and how the original attestation can be done? Passport of the person is confiscated by the court. Any advice how can he be free. The person is not educated and he only did this act to obtain a good job, although the act cannot be excused whatsoever the reason was.
