Does anything become binding upon me if I issue a traffic violation ticket in the name of another person due to a mismatch in the Iqama number?
The questioner is not at fault as long as the violation was not registered against him due to an error. However, the consideration here is that the error in the Iqama number means that the registered number belongs to someone else, and that person will bear the payment of the fine. Therefore, the questioner must correct the situation to prevent injustice to another, because no one else knows about the error. He must also provide his testimony to the competent authority, as the reason for the obligation to testify is either the rightful owner's request or the fear of their right being lost. So, if someone has testimony and the rightful owner is unaware of it, and there is a fear of the right being lost, then he must testify without being asked.
