How to create multilingual menu link programmatically in Drupal 7

Question

I'm trying to create the menu link programmatically. But its not working where source language is other than english. Here is my code.

 $language_list = language_list();
 foreach ($language_list as $language_code => $language_object) {
   $menu_item = array(
      'link_title' => t('Fruit'),
      'menu_name' => 'menu-main-footer',
      'customized' => 1,
      'link_path' => $custom_path,
      'language' => $language_code,
      'weight' => 30,
    );
    menu_link_save($menu_item);
  }

Any one have some idea on this?

I changed my code. And it work for me.

 // Create menu translation set.
 $menu_translation_set = i18n_translation_set_create('menu_link');

  // Create translated menu link for all site enable language.
  $language_list = language_list();
  foreach ($language_list as $language_code => $language_object) {

     // Add Fruit link in menu-main-footer.
     // 'change-fruit' is node title.
     $fruit_path = drupal_get_normal_path('change-fruit', $language_code);
     if (!menu_link_get_preferred($fruit_path, 'menu-main-footer')) {
       $menu_item = array(
         'link_title' => t('fruit'),
         'menu_name' => 'menu-main-footer',
         'customized' => 1,
         'link_path' => $fruit_path,
         'language' => $language_code,
         'weight' => 30,
         'i18n_tsid' => $menu_translation_set->tsid,
       );
       menu_link_save($menu_item);
       $menu_translation_set->add_item($menu_item, $language_code);
       $menu_translation_set->save();
     } 
  }
