Summary:
This reflects “selective bias” on part of the authority.The HC is likely to hear this matter on Tuesday. After tendering her apology, she has urged the HC to quash the FIR lodged against her by the FRRO for violation of Foreigners Act.The Russian woman also admitted to have entered the country without visa, about her overstay in 2015. Penalties can be levied for overstaying and registration of FIR and criminal prosecution is something unheard of. She also admitted having paid necessary fine for visa and overstay in the past to obtain an exit permit.Leonskaia has told the HC that in December 2016, she went from Chennai to Colombo in Sri Lanka, from where she applied for Indian visa, but her request was rejected. AHMEDABAD: After the Centre pointed out discrepancy in claims made by a Russian woman who has asked for her exit permit, Anastasiia Leonskaia tendered an unconditional apology to Gujarat high court for her statements found at variance from the truth.In an affidavit filed in the high court on Monday, Leonskaia (38) mentioned that she “craves unconditional apology” for mentioning a different date of her arrival to India before the court, crime branch as well as the Foreign Registration Regional Office (FRRO)..
