Misrepresentation in a criminal case filed by the bank
My husband was arrested at the airport because of a wrongful case filed by a bank in the UAE against my husband's company instead of the actual loan defaulter.
My husband was held at the airport and was not allowed to travel that night. They released my husband that night after the intervention of his sponsor.
But the passport was held as security. He had to visit the police station on the next working day to prove his innocence and reclaim his passport.
We want to sue this bank. How should we proceed?
Dear Questioner,
Good evening.
Thanks for contacting online.
Before proceeding with a case against the bank you have to be sure that your husband has not signed the cheque for and on behalf of the company because the criminal case will be against the person who signed the cheque.
If he was made accused in a criminal case without his signature on the cheque, he has definitely got the right to sue the bank for the humiliation and defamation happened for his reputation.
Please feel free to contact me at 0556635526 or WhatsApp me at 0508575526 if you need any further explanation or clarification on this.

Hi,
If your husband really had no relation with the bank, it means there’s a mistake from the Bank. So, you can file a case.
But if your husband is a guarantor on behalf of someone else or on behalf of the company, they can charge him.
