An Indian court in the state of Goa has sentenced one more Russian tourist to a year imprisonment over an expired visa, a representative for the Russian consulate in Mumbai said Saturday.

Rusanov was arrested in the Pernem district in the north of Goa. His visa expired up to two months ago, along with his passport.

"The court held several hearings, on which results he [Rusanov] was sentenced to a year in prison and 10 thousand rupees fine (about $ 220)," the spokesman said.

The judge cited an inadequate behavior of Rusanov as a reason for the decision.
