Hi Expert
I am a business man from Dubai who lost everything when the crisis hit Middle East. I have business debts on me.
1. LLC Company cheque signed by me for AED 250K for 1st party payable in November 2011. AED 200K + AED 150K to the second party payable in December 2011 and finally AED 340K to a third party. No cheques were given but unnotarized contract on a plain paper signed.
I am currently in India and do not wish to go back. My intentions are 100% genuine. I wish to pay every penny back to these people but I need time to be able to organize this. Say 3-4 years.
My questions are as follows
1. If my cheques bounces in Nov/Dec and cases filed, can I be extradited from India/USA/Australia/Italy/Germany? Because in these countries I might get my new job.
2. Are these cases big enough for UAE to pursue through Interpol?
3. What are the legal implications of getting into this mess, if I am unable to sort it out with the concerned people before the due date.
4. Can I be arrested at the Indian or international airport whilst I am travelling, if the cases get registered?

ANSWER TO,
Q1), extraditions are subject to treaties between two countries and its procedure in India is governed by India: Extradition Act 1962.So if the treaty lays a provision of extradition for an offence of a cheque bounce,then the same can happen otherwise not.
Q2),Does not seem so,but only U A E knows it.
Q3),Will depend upon the law of the country where offence takes place.
Q4),Subject to law and treaty,yes.In Indian law there is no arrest in such type of a case.
