Can a false charge under the criminal act affect my UK student visa application?
Hi, Recently I got admitted to one of the leading UK universities and I was arrested based on the false complaint gave my wife on 498A, 506(1), 406, 323, and Muslims act sections 1 and 2. The charge sheet has been filed and the witness is not appearing in the court and delaying the witness. Recently, I have successfully shortlisted in an interview for my PhD studies and I want to apply a student visa. Will this would create hindrance in rejection of my student visa? From wife family members they are not appearing for witness and they are looking for money to settle. As I don’t have enough money and I want to fight this case until I get acquittal, will court give me permission to go to UK for my higher studies.
Even when a person has criminal charges, it does not necessarily mean that he or she cannot apply for a student visa. The Delhi High Court held that such cases do not automatically disqualify a person from seeking long-term opportunities abroad. However, the court may require you to obtain permission to travel considering your case. If your wife's family is delaying witness appearances and seeking a settlement, it may help your case if you can demonstrate your commitment to fighting the allegations.
