I had a case at Al Barsha Police Station, Dubai, for one year. On 22 April, the court announced a verdict and imposed a fine of AED 5000, which I paid on the very next day and got the certificate from DPP, which I took to the Al Barsha Police station and submitted there. The police officer told me that they have removed the travel ban, and the records will be updated in other emirates within 24 hours. It's been more than 48 hours now since I applied for a clearance certificate on the MOI app, and it has turned into status "review with the concerned party." I don't have any other cases, only this case, for which I paid the penalty already. Seeking expert advice, please.

Dear Sir One of my friends took a loan and credit cards from various banks and ran away to Pakistan as he lost his job. Can anyone chase him in Pakistan?

One is in jail for the first case, and the other ran to Pakistan. That's why he defaulted on payment.
