Payment of bounced cheque fine and release from custody
Good Afternoon,
My relative had been in court trial today for a bounced cheque wherein the judgement is a fine payment of AED 10,000.
He has sufficient money with him and can pay this fine immediately, however, the court is not clarifying when the fine can be paid and when he will be released.
At the moment, he is being held at the Dubai Courts and we are still unsure when he will be able to get out. I am aware that the Courts close at 2 PM.
Does it also mean he would not be able to be released today?
Thank you
Dear Sir/Madam,
Thank you for getting in touch with me on this.
Your relative has to pay the fine in the court to get clearance and obtain a release paper. Subsequently, obtain police clearance to get your relative released from custody.
It is a matter of an hours' job and you can get in touch with me on 052-9495731 for further assistance if required.
Regards,
Hari Wadhwana
