You are generally screwed. Every reverse jump start I have seen resulted in a few and expensive components ending up dead. For starters you probably lost your front (maybe rear too) SAM as well as possibly your drive authorization and ecu. Starter relay. And it goes on.
A star reading will point some of the casualties. Others will have to be found via trial and error.
Good luck...

sadly no,
even the mechanic is not accepting my phone calls
but a friend told me I should disconnect the alternator
what do you think?

the car has wiring harness we don't know where,
the mechanic checked the rear and front SAM and they are OK.
tomorrow I'll take the car back and send it from Dubai to Jordan to have fixed there.
