Civil suits takes time. Suit can be file where you brother is at present. But this will take time as inter country loan. Even filing case will take time. Ignore bank calls.

Now the banks of Middle East are connected medalist are connected with  CIBIL services in India and any person who was living in Middle East and used the financial services from banks in Middle East can be tracked down in India and as per the IPC provisions of any person who has done any crime in   any country may be prosecuted in India so in this case it is a possibility ant Middle East banking use the debt recovery Tribunal to file a case against you for the recovery of the amount borrowed along with interest and penalty you have to appear before the debt recovery Tribunal there you man Summit that you are running out fund because of   no  proper job  and try to get the amount  converted in equated monthly installment

-  As per  the pact , if any person leave UAE, without clearing the taken loan /outstanding debts, can be detained in India , and some other country as well, and at the time of immigration to some other country. 

- Further, the Foreign Affairs Department clarified that the Indian government cannot help the person with debt cases , as these are considered a private matter between the lender and the borrower. Hence 

1. Your brother should communicate with your bank and properly inform them your financial situation and further request the available settlement options. 

2. If bank agreed ,and acceptable by your brother, then request a settlement letter. Never pay without any documentary proof.

3) This payment can be made from any country , if your brother will join service there. 

4. Once your brother fully paid, tell him to request a release/clearance letter. If the bank has filed a case , then  secure a clearance from the bank’s lawyer as proof that they have cancelled the case.

5. Your brother should present the clearance to the police station so your records can be cleared from police and immigration systems.

That pact is not related to your case. That is if any order pass by uae court, order can be executed in India without filling fresh suit in India but if your brother will not attend court there, ex parte order passed against your brother not valid in India.

In its notification, the Ministry of Law and Justice said the UAE would be a reciprocating territory under section 44A of Civil Procedure Code.

The section essentially says that any decree passed by the superior courts of any “reciprocating territory” may be executed in India, as if it has been passed by Indian courts.

2) bank will take execution proceedings in India to recover money

- Now, with the new PACT , UAE will be treated as a reciprocating territory under section 44-A of CPC, which narrates that any decree passed by the superior courts of any “reciprocating territory” may be executed in India, as if it has been passed by Indian courts.
- Hence, if the bank files a civil case for the recovery of the outstanding debts of your brother , then in his absence UAE court will passed its order within a short period of time now , and execution of that order will effect in Indian Court as well. 

- I have already mentioned the ways to get ride of it .

Let the bank file a case. They have to fight ot here. Also your brother's paying capacity is not such that he will pay back the loan. They can do nothing.

To avoid all this better u can negotiate with the bank concerned,and make payment in installments. If not agreed by them, let them approach through court of law in India for payment.But your credit history will get damaged globally,thereby your credit rating will be tarnished.Alternately u can deposit the amount to the bank in instalments through indian banks or Dubai Banks working in India.Don't invite problems.remember Interpoll through which u can be traced.

The Bank at UAE cannot file a recovery suit here in India for the loan availed in that country, hence wait for them to take any action in  this regard.

in fact they may hire some agent for recovery who would be threatening  with dire consequences if he is not repaying the loan amount, in such an event your brother can lodge a police  complaint against the said agents to have protection from any such illegal act that may be done by them.

What you say about the pact is a news, however await the said pact to come into existence after that you will come to know whether your brother's case will come under this pact or not.

Before that do not jump into any hasty conclusion so that you dont draw any adverse action against you by your own commitment

1. Your brother should settle the loan or ask bank of UAE to make a repayment plan for clearing the loan. 

2. Bank can file civil suit for recovery against your brother and get the decree executed in India. Or they can file suit for recovery against your brother in India also but it may take time.

Dear Sir,

Running away from any problem doesn't solve it my friend.. approach a good lawyer in the UAE for advice.. if you need help, 

Look for a solution and try to solve things amicably if possible, and if not, then through the legal remedies available to you..

In your case, Indian courts do not have the jurisdiction.. The most you can do here is to seek protection from recovery agents harassing you here.. However, in as far as the criminal matters of cheque bouncing and the civil bank recovery suit is concerned, you would have to contest the same there..
