New enforcement law enables direct asset seizure, says lawyer

Lawyer Rana Al-Daknan stated that the new enforcement law relies on a mechanism for direct enforcement through the seizure and tracking of assets by order of the enforcement judge.

Speaking on the "Ya Hala" program aired on Rotana Khalijia, she added that asset tracking includes the judge’s authority to investigate, issue arrest and summons orders against the debtor, and grants the enforcement judge extensive powers.

She continued that the new law represents a smart and significant shift compared to the previous system, which mainly relied on restrictions and imprisonment. The new law addresses asset tracking and gives enforcement courts more authority, as well as allowing cooperation with institutions, the private sector, and non-profit organizations, since securing rights is considered more important than imprisonment or suspending services.
