Allahabad High Court Modifies Bail Conditions for Chinese National
Alice Lee, a Chinese national working in India, was arrested for alleged GST fraud involving her company, Tentech LED Display.
She was granted bail but couldn't be released because the Chinese embassy didn't provide a guarantee certificate.
The Allahabad High Court then changed the bail conditions, allowing her to stay in India and attend court proceedings without needing the embassy's certificate.
The court also directed her to inform the trial court about her whereabouts periodically.
The prosecution claims she and her company evaded GST by misclassifying goods, while her defense argues she is cooperating with the trial.
Alice Lee, a Chinese national, was arrested for alleged GST fraud worth Rs 88,80,751.
She was granted bail in February 2026 but couldn't be released due to the Chinese embassy's rejection of a guarantee certificate.
The Allahabad High Court modified the bail conditions on July 14, 2026, allowing her to stay in India and attend court proceedings.
Lee must inform the trial court of her whereabouts every two months through an affidavit.
The prosecution alleges that Lee and her company, Tentech LED Display, evaded GST by misclassifying goods.
