Q: Dear Sir/Madam, My employer put an absconding case against me in labor court. I won the labor case in court and requested for the withdrawal of the absconding status in the labor court, which was approved.

I received an email stating that an "Issued Outpass" has been approved and a document "Temporary Closure with Absconding" has been issued, giving me only 7 days to leave the country. What do I need to do? Is this outpass still valid even though my absconding status has been lifted in labor court? Will I be deported because of this outpass?
