Two jurists warned against drifting behind “sham licenses”, which citizens extract in their names for foreigners who own shops and individual companies, in search of easy profit, unaware that they may expose them to legal problems, which may reach the prison and fines in the millions of dirhams, since they are unfamiliar with the laws, laws and negative effects of The owners of these licenses must.
Fujairah courts registered a number of cases, in which the defendant was citizens who extracted fake licenses for Asians, and they were sentenced to huge financial fines, among them a case in which a fine of one million and 200 thousand dirhams was issued against a citizen, who was a photo sponsor of a tire shop, and an Asian worker caused a sustainable deficiency for an Arab After one of the tires of a truck he was driving exploded in his face,
Lawyer and counselor Rashid Al-Hafiti asserted that some Asians tempt citizens to extract fake licenses for their private companies and their commercial premises. The Asian explains this license to the citizen in a wrong and out of health way, and informs him that he will be a partner in this institution, and is not legally accountable for any problem the store is facing in the future. He is also tempted by the money that the license holder will earn without fatigue each year, which ranges between 3000 and 100,000 dirhams, which leads the citizen to agree immediately.
He pointed out that mock licenses are the easiest way to earn material, but the legal issues that arise from them may make it a curse for the owner, up to his imprisonment and payment of millions of dirhams, as the citizen in this license is a partner with the foreign partner with open proxies, and the validity is not limited to a certain period and time. The citizen renews it annually for material profit.
Al-Hafiti warned those with fake licenses against giving the foreign partner open proxies, and that the validity period be determined by a certain period, with the company monitoring periodically, without neglecting the responsibilities that fall on its owner, stressing that most of the owners of fake licenses are elderly, who are greatly exploited. Asians, then the youth who are looking for financial gain without getting tired.
He pointed out that the responsibility of the owner of the license, who is the guarantor, is fully, as it will be legally accounted as a guarantor for the employees who work in the institution, noting that the contract between the two parties defines their responsibilities, and most of those who carry out these licenses do not care about the contracts and their responsibilities, since The contract clarified the partner’s responsibility in the relationship concluded, which is based on solidarity between the two parties, but falls entirely on the citizen’s responsibility, especially since most foreign partners prefer to imprison in exchange for not paying financial fines, or escaping from law and justice.
Lawyer and legal advisor, Hawaiyat Al-Mansouri, stressed the need to intensify awareness programs for everyone who makes photocopying licenses, in order to sensitize them to legal articles that clarify their rights and the responsibility that falls on them, especially that they may fall into legal accountability if a problem occurs in the place where they are partners with The foreign partner, whether it is a crime, or if one of the employees has a legal problem towards a consumer, the fictional partner will be held accountable with the accused.
It clarifies that the most cases that come to the courts are due to the lack of knowledge of the citizen, and his drift behind the Asian temptation to him, without asking about the truth of these licenses and their responsibilities, since the citizen partner who wishes to work in this field must be more careful towards the foreign partner, by reviewing it between Now and then, and all transactions are restricted, so no banking transaction or employing unlicensed workers or others without his knowledge and approval comes out, neglecting these matters will lead to serious consequences, especially as some citizens have mock licenses in excess of 10 licenses for commercial and real estate shops.
Fines for citizens
The Dibba Al-Fujairah court fined a citizen of 400,000 dirhams, after one of the citizens had a traffic accident for an unsecured vehicle from an insurance company, which he rented from a vehicle rental office, in which the accused was a photo sponsor.
The victim was driving the rental vehicle in one of the main streets, and he was subjected to a traffic accident, the latest severe injury to it, but he was surprised that the vehicle is not insured in the event of traffic accidents, which led him to claim a legal right.
Most of the cases reported to the courts are due to the lack of knowledge of the citizen and his drift behind the temptation of the Asian.
