The FBI today named gangster Satinderjeet Singh, known as Goldy Brar, as the latest figure on its Ten Most Wanted list, announcing a $1 million reward for tips that result in his arrest— a move that underscores the agency’s focus on transnational crime.
Brar is accused of orchestrating a range of violent acts under the banner of the Lawrence Bishnoi Organized Crime Group, a network that the FBI says operates across Southern California, the rest of the United States and Canada. The charges include RICO conspiracy, targeted killings, extortion, and the trafficking of narcotics and weapons.
On 1 July a federal arrest warrant was issued in the United States District Court, Central District of California. The warrant cites charges of racketeering, conspiracy to interfere with commerce by extortion, and conspiracy to distribute controlled substances, among others.
The warrant came after the FBI’s long‑running Operation Hardball, which targeted three India‑based organized‑crime syndicates. In that operation, 37 defendants were charged, with Brar identified as a key leader of the Bishnoi enterprise.
The Bureau’s public statement warns that Brar is armed, dangerous and a flight risk. It urges anyone with information—whether it is a sighting, a vehicle description or a contact name—to come forward, as the reward remains in place pending his capture.
Law enforcement officials say the next phase will involve coordinated searches across North America, with intelligence gathered from Canadian counterparts and local police units. A successful arrest could trigger a cascade of indictments against other members of the Bishnoi organization.
