You need to all pay him a visit at one time (everyone he owes money too) and convince him to pay back the money....one way or another.

If you want to file a civil case it will cost 1000 riyals just to talk to a lawyer. It will also take about a year to get a court date. Much better if you can settle out of court.

If you have a friend in the police they might decide to help you, they won't take the case to court, they might confiscate this persons passport and make things difficult for them.

blueshift is absolutely right in his comment. If your friend is from your home country or your city back home, you can just threaten him verbally you will get even with him whenever he returns home. There is nothing much more than that you can do.

Your only hope of getting your money back is to convince your friend that not repaying you is unacceptable.

If you hire a lawyer and go to court, it will cost you 100,000 ryals and take one year. Police are not going to help you unless you have wasta or a post dated cheque.

Put brakes on all your future donations , reduce one khuboos at BF, one at lunch & one at dinner ......... control your spending till you recover half of the amount in the form of savings ........... work over time at the same time ......... in this way you will be able to recover all your money in 3 years's time ..........

Perhaps he had to lend money to his in laws or used it to buy land in his home country ... Forgive him my pal

If he's your friend, forget it. If he's your enemy, go to the police.
