We have extradition treaty wth UK and USA so you can be brought back and after cancelling bail can be imprisoned.Take court's permission for renewal of passport or for visa.

Re: about visa

Much depends on the conditions of bail imposed on accused.

In case of accused traveling or staying abroad with a view to abscond or not available for trial, then his bail is liable to be cancelled. There is no punishment prescribed.

Issuance of the passport can not be withheld only on account of pendency of some criminal matter.
