How to enforce a favorable court verdict against a bank in execution

Q: I bought a property in 2008 with an 80% mortgage loan from a reputed national bank. As per the mortgage contract it was signed for “Variable Interest Rate” and the bank should inform me about the interest rate changes. And I shouldn’t stop paying the principal amount. BANK FRAUD: 1. The bank forced me to pay Pre-EMI for the first 6 years. 2. The bank increased the interest rate without informing me. 3. The bank used that increased interest rate as a fixed rate for 11 years. After several emails and phone calls without any action, I stopped paying the bank, and then the bank has filed a commercial case in Dubai court. The bank lost that case and Dubai Court ordered to reverse the bank fraud as per the signed contract: 1. Reverse all Pre-EMI to EMI. 2. Reverse interest rate increase. The bank filed an appeal to Cassation Court and lost that appeal too. MY QUESTIONS: 1. How can I exit from such a fraudulent bank contract and get my money back?
