Allahabad High Court Modifies Bail Conditions for Chinese National in GST Fraud Case
The Allahabad High Court modified bail conditions for Alice Lee, a Chinese national accused of GST fraud worth over Rs 88 lakh, after she remained jailed for nearly five months despite bail granted in February. The court removed the requirement for a guarantee certificate from the Chinese Embassy, which had refused to issue it, and instead directed Lee to file an undertaking to attend all trial proceedings and seek permission before leaving India. Lee was arrested in August 2025 and holds an X-Misc visa restricting her departure without an exit permit.
