DATED: 6th May 2008. DATED: 6th May 2008. DATED: 6th May 2008. P.C.: P.C.: P.C.: ---- ---- ---- . Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.P.P. for the State. 2. The applicant is seeking bail in connection with C.R.No.17/2008 registered with M.I.D.C. Police Station, Mumbai for the offences punishable under sections 420 and 511 of Indian Penal Code. 3. The applicant is in custody. He is a Nigerian citizen. His visa has already been expired. In that view of the matter, no useful purpose would be served by enlarging the applicant- accused on bail because after his release he would not be entitled to stay in this country. If he is deported then the trial would be delayed. In this view of the matter, the applicant is not entitled to bail. However, it would be open for the applicant to apply for extension of visa through jail authorities and then apply for bail. In the event of his application for extension of visa, the same would be considered on its own merits. 4. With the aforesaid observations, application for bail is rejected. JUDGE JUDGE JUDGE
