First check about charges framed being extradible or not. The UAE cheque bounce laws are very stringent and moreover India has bilateral extradition treaty with UAE. Please speak to some local lawyer, find out in detail if the charges framed are in the list of extradible crimes. You are in a difficult situation and unfortunately ruling set up in our country is not so sensitive and supportive to normal public, so if UAE asks for your extradition on proper grounds, things could be worse for you, ofcourse your offense coupled with our ruling mindset of showing to other countries that we are being good law abiding country may be against you. I am not supportive of your offense but a regulatory offense like this has been made quite troublesome in many countries.
