Abu Dhabi resident forged a woman’s signature on a check worth Dh1.2 million. The man was ordered to pay her Dh50,000 in compensation.
The woman filed a civil suit against the man seeking Dh4 million in damages, official court documents said. She added that the man had earlier filed a lawsuit against her for writing invalid checks.
The plaintiff said the man presented a check with her forged signature and claimed it was hers.
