The High Court of Karnataka has dismissed a petition filed by a 40-year-old woman, a Chinese national and an accused in an app-based multi-crore fraud case, who had sought direction to the immigration authorities to extend her visa and that of her minor daughter.
Hu Xiaolin, the petitioner, had claimed that she was falsely implicated in the criminal case and sought extension of visa on the grounds that her presence in India was necessary both for investigation and for trial, if a chargesheet was filed against her.
Her husband, Anas Ahmed, is a prime accused in the case.
