Saltrans. The same thing ...Saltrans.
The same thing happened to me as well. A Sudan guy came to me and asked me to pull off my car while i was cueing for the ATM Machine, saying that I am blocking the road. But actually I was not blocking and I was in the correct position too.
He said I will report to the police & he informed to the police by telephone saying something in Arabic.
I didn’t care; I took the money from ATM and drove back home safely. Here Police are very good unless they have a proper evidence or they catch you by themselves they will not take any action.
Here in Qatar many guys fool us by saying that they are police but they are actually jokers…
Note: Only when you jump a red light, they will fine you 6000DHS and the police will give video evidence when you pay your fine.
Not to worry.
Regards

Your profile says.. you are ...Your profile says.. you are Syrian
And i believe you both spoke Arabic... So you know the answer better than anybody here...
how can we say if he was joking or serious... ??
Was he smiling when he said that?
Did he say "ima jooooking"?
Was he hiding his lips with his hands and laughing silently?
Did he wink at you later?
You know things like that ...
anyway... an off duty police cant charge you with anything unless he calls police on the spot.. or take pictures for evidence.

I personally think,, that ...I personally think,, that Qatari guy has done the right thing... maybe OP was blocking the road by parking on the sidewalk, may be thats why that guy got upset ... in any case no one should park their cars on sidewalk. And if that Qatari guy stopped him for doing so, he's done the right thing. (as a citizen or police)
and im afraid you cannot report anyone for stopping you from any traffic violation, besides the reason for complaining would sound even funnier... "I like to complain a guy who stopped me for violating a traffic law" :D
But yeah, you don't have to show your ID, License or give it to anybody unless they are in police uniform or produce Police ID .. :)

He can report someone who is ...He can report someone who is misrepresenting himself as a policeman. Real policemen will show their official ID if asked politely. Imposters will bluster and shout.
