I am Amjad Hossan, a citizen of Bangladesh. I live in Qatar regularly since May 08, 2010. I have completed 9 years working for my first company. Then I worked at Sahara Contracting Company from June 1, 2019 to July 23, 2020. After completing one year of my service. I applied to the company to go on vacation in the country and pay off six months arrears. The company has a bank statement (WPS) to pay my salary. He ordered me to go on vacation in the country without six months outstanding salary. But after 11 long years, I have not agreed to go to the country without my six months outstanding salary. I have made numerous requests to pay my arrears. The company told me, I don't have money, I'll pay your arrears later. Then the company orders me to move to another new company. I follow the company's instructions, and arrange another new company. He gave me the necessary documents to go to the new company. I apply it online on July 19, 2020. Online application request id: EC-200719-55582. Then on August 24, 2020, I ask him about my six months arrears. Because of that, he make escape report about me to Criminal Evidences and Information Department. My application for a change of employer was therefore rejected. Then I went to the criminal Evidences and Information department. His Excellency the judge, in court, verified the evidence of all my information. The court found my all information correct and give judgment in my favor. His Excellency the Court acquitted me of the charge of absconding. In the my escape report case number 1307/2020. After getting rid of my runaway case, I got a job at a new company. I have not had any income for the last nine months (Six months unpaid salary and three months waiting in the room). I am having trouble eating and renting the room. I am the only source of income for my family. My elderly parents are having problems with lack of money for food and medicine. My wife will probably leave me because i can't pay the expenses. In this case, I feel very depressed. I kindly request you to help me join the new company. That will benefit me and my family. I have lived in Qatar for a large part of my life. This country is now my second homeland . I love this country very much. Because of this love I want to live here. So please give me a opportunity to live in my second home country Qatar.
