Q: Hi Sir/Madam,
My husband was caught in a drug case with his friend. After three hearings and a court judgment, he was released from jail.
Now, how can he get his passport?
When he asked for his passport, the officers said that he was deported from the UAE. However, his judgment, including the appeal court judgment, proves that he is innocent.
Is it possible?

I have a travel ban for a financial case at the police. Should I go to police to get more info?

1
Q: Hello.
I have a travel ban in the UAE, and my lawyer has informed me that I have a financial case.
However, obtaining all the details is currently challenging as my case is still at the police station, and we must wait for a few more weeks until it's transferred to the prosecutor's office.
I'm confused about not getting my case details and the need to wait.
Should I visit the police station myself?

Can an outpass affect my Dubai police clearance for a UK visa application?



3
Q: Good evening, everyone!
I left Dubai in January 2023, and I am currently in the process of applying for a UK visa. I was asked to provide a Dubai police clearance certificate, which I did.
However, I recently found out that the Dubai police clearance certificate I provided has been canceled.
I have no prior cases against me in Dubai, so I'm wondering if the cancellation is related to the outpass I obtained to leave the country.
Can an outpass prevent me from obtaining a Dubai police clearance certificate?
I only have a few days left to respond to UKvi.

Is it mandatory to visit the CID in person to update my records?




2
Q: Respected Advisors,
I have been involved in a few criminal cases since 2017, but all of them were cleared by this year. I have obtained release letters for all the cases from the public prosecution office through an online portal.
Recently, I also received my residence visa. After the visa process was completed, I applied for a PCC online. However, the request was rejected.
I contacted the 901 office, and they advised me to visit the CID. I arranged for a power of attorney to be granted along with all the necessary documents to update the system.
Twice I was told to come in person, but I am hesitant to do so because of my previous negative experience.
Could someone please advise me whether I must go in person or if the person holding the power of attorney can handle the process?
Thank you!

Can I get a police clearance certificate if I'm under investigation and have a travel ban?




1
Q: Good morning, lawyers,
I have a situation. I was called for questioning as the case is still under investigation, and I later realized they issued a travel ban against me.
However, I need a police clearance certificate.
Will I be able to obtain the police clearance, or will it be denied because of the travel ban?

Legal remedy for non-compete suit filed by ex-employer 1
Hi,
I have signed a non-compete clause (under unlimited contract) with my previous company. After working for 8 years with them, they terminated me.
I have now joined a competitor considering there was no other job available in the market. Now after 7 months, my previous company has filed a legal suit asking for compensation considering I am in a similar role and in the same territory.
What is the available remedy?
