PUDUCHERRY: A case of visa violation was registered against a Rwandan national, who is studying in a college in Bangalore. According to the police, Muhire Nepo, had come to India to pursue higher education for which he was granted visa. But subsequently he moved to Puducherry to study business administration in Acharya College at Villianur, and failed to inform authorities about the move. The police said he caught their attention in Auroville, Puducherry. During questioning, the officials asked him to produce documents and that’s when the Managalam police station found that he was granted visa to study in Bangalore. A case under section 14 of Foreigners Act and section 5 of Registration of Foreigners Act was filed against him. However, he moved the Madras High Court and was granted an anticipatory bail by Justice G Rajasurya on July 29. The Madras High Court judge also directed him to appear before Judicial Magistrate Court I in Puducherry within 10 days and execute a bond of `10,000. So far, the Rwandan national has not turned up at the Judicial Magistrate-I court in Puducherry. Earlier during interrogation Nepo said that he shifted to Puducherry as the college here had better infrastructure. Nepo had said he is residing in a private residence at Chinna Mudaliarchavady near Auroville, which falls under the administrative jurisdiction of neighbouring Tamil Nadu state.
