Debt recovery case from a company owner who fled the country
We are an LLC company in Dubai, an India resident. We sold goods to a general trading company in Dubai.
He paid 30 % cash and a balance in a post-dated cheque of AED 63000. We presented the cheque two times, and the cheque bounced 2 times.
We have gone to the office many times but the office is closed and the person ran away to India.
As we are also Indian, after a court case in Dubai can we file a case against the person in India?
Dear Questioner,
Thanks for contacting online.
For the bounced cheques, you can move a criminal case as well as a civil case against that general trading company.
Even if the manager of the company runs away, you can file a case for commercial recovery here in Dubai and get a judgment in your favour.
By transferring that judgment to India, you can get it executed there in India in the concerned court where that manager resides.
Please feel free to contact me on 0556635526 or on ar@alnassaradvocates.com if you need any further clarification or assistance.
