Police record inspection after leaving the UAE with a small debt
3
Q: Hi Hari
Please advise if you can assist me.
I would like to have a police check done. I was based in Dubai between 2008-2012.
I left with a small car rental debt (approx AED 9000), which I have subsequently paid back. The company assures me that they have cleared the police case. I have a letter from them confirming that.
How can I be sure of this? Can you assist? What are your fees for this?
We are due to travel to India in Dec, transit through Dubai, hence my request.
Regards

Facing the civil liability of credit card debts in the UAE
0
Q: Hi,
I held a bank card once at the limit of AED 14000 and paid enough to the bank. Suddenly, my job was gone and even I paid AED 5000 also to the bank after I got threatened by a collection agency.
After that, I got a job in Qatar. Then while passing in transit, they arrested me in Dubai since the bank filed a case against me. Then I was jailed for more than a week and visited the court and explained my situation.
They told me to pay the fine of 2500 AED and I paid. One day, the bank representatives have mailed me and I replied to them by saying the same statement.
But suddenly today, they called and telling that I have a outstanding dept of AED 18000 and I need to pay them immediately or they will file a civil case against me.
My situation is I am not able to pay them any money because even after I paid them they put me in jail. What should I do now?
I need your advise please.

Consequences of not handing over the rented car to company
2
Q: Hi,
I was working in Dubai and the owner of the company where I was working ran away from Dubai leaving all the employees stuck.
I was driving a rental car rented by the company as part of the contract between me and the company.
When I cancelled my visa, there was nobody to take the car from me so I left it with my friend who delivered the car later to one employee who returned it back to the rental car company.
I am now applying for a good conduct certificate from Dubai, would this car issue cause any troubles for me?

The possibility to execute a potential court order while being in a transit in Dubai
1
Q: Hello,
My husband and I have patched up after an extremely serious fight (which involved police and courts in 2 countries) in which he took away my Pakistani passport and my kids' foreign passports to keep us in Pakistan.
Now, we are going to Africa for a vacation from Europe and we have a few hours transit in Dubai.
Is it possible for my European national husband to somehow snatch my kids away legally by filing a case against me in the UAE, as he is in Dubai on a visit visa, and take them to Pakistan?
Anxiously waiting for a reply. A desperate and scared mother!

The Police Financial Case Inquiry service shows no cases. Am I clear to travel?




1
Q: Hi,
I checked the Dubai Police Financial Case Inquiry service, and it shows no cases and everything is clear against my Emirates ID.
Does this only cover criminal cases, or does it include civil cases as well?
Do I need to check elsewhere to determine if there are any active civil cases against me, or am I clear to travel?

مدافعة دعوى طلاق للضرر رفعتها الزوجة أثناء وجود الزوج خارج البلاد 0
رفعت زوجتي قضية طلاق للضرر ضدي وقت سفري للخارج وذلك بالضغط من أهلها، وقالت في لائحة الدعوى أنني هجرتها ولم أنفق عليها ولا على طفلي الاثنين وأنها استأجرت سكنًا خاصًا بعد أن تخليت عنهم، وهو لم يحدث جملة وتفصيلاً، وهناك ما يُثبت.
تركت لهم المصروف الخاص بالبيت وهناك رسائل واتساب تشهد بذلك قبل السفر.
ولكن لظروف مرض كورونا المنتشر حاليًا، لا يمكنني العودة بسبب إغلاق المطارات؛ ومع ذلك لا توجد مشكلة في إيجار السكن ولا المدارس وهناك مصروف لهم يكفي لمدة سنة.
هل إن رجعت وقدمت ما لدي من مستندات تفيد بأنني أخبرتها بسفري لرؤية الوالد، ولدي عقد إيجار للسكن صالح لآخر سنة ٢٠٢٠، وحتى رسوم المدارس تُخصَم من حسابي في البنك مباشرة، يرفض القاضي طلب الطلاق للضرر؟
لقد أعدت حجز الأبناء في المدارس عن طريق الإنترنت للسنة القادمة ٢٠٢٠/٢٠٢١، هل هذا يكفي لرفض طلبها؟
مع العلم أن الزوجة لم ترفق أي ورقة في الدعوى تُثبت إدعائها بأنها قامت باستئجار سكن. أنا أملك تلك المستندات باسمي وجميع الرسوم المدرسية والسكن وقد أبلغتها عن طريق الواتساب بغرض السفر.
مع العلم بأني مقيم في إمارة دبي.
