I am here on an open work visa, which will expire in a couple of days.
In November 2013 I got into a verbal brawl on the roadside with a couple. After that they put a criminal case against me. Now I am in a very difficult position.
The case has went to court, I am pleading not guilty. But the fixture date is in July.
As my visa is expiring in a few days, I applied for temporary work visa. I may not be granted that, due to the existing case. I am hoping that they put me on an interim visa.
if they decline, I am not sure how will I be able to go to court in July for my case.
if I go back to my home country, I will be absconding from my case. If I stay here, after my work visa being declined, wont I be unlawful ?
