The United States Federal Bureau of Investigation has added fugitive Satinderjeet Singh, also known as Goldy Brar, to its Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list, marking a major development in an international investigation into alleged transnational organised crime.

The FBI announced the addition on September 28 and offered a reward of up to $1 million for information leading to Brar’s arrest. He is the 543rd fugitive to be added to the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted list since the programme began in 1950.

Wanted Over Multiple Federal Charges

According to the FBI, Brar is wanted in the United States over several federal charges, including racketeering conspiracy, extortion-related offences and conspiracy to distribute and possess controlled substances.

US authorities allege that Brar is a leader of the Lawrence Bishnoi Organised Crime Group in North America. The FBI alleges that the organisation has been involved in targeted killings, shootings, kidnappings, extortion and narcotics trafficking across the United States and Canada.

The FBI has described Brar as armed and dangerous and said he is known to have connections in California and Canada.

International Crime Network Under Investigation

Brar’s addition to the list comes amid a wider US investigation into transnational organised crime networks with alleged links to India.

The FBI said the move is connected to Operation Hardball, a long-running federal investigation into criminal organisations operating across international borders. In July 2026, US authorities announced indictments against 37 defendants linked to three such organisations.

One of the cases focused on the Bishnoi organisation, with Brar alleged to be one of its leaders and involved in directing members and associates across countries.

FBI Seeks Information

US authorities have appealed to the public for information that could help locate Brar. The FBI has offered a reward of up to $1 million for information leading to his arrest.

The investigation involves the FBI’s Los Angeles Field Office, the Los Angeles Police Department and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, along with other law enforcement agencies.

The charges and allegations against Brar have not been established as facts in court, and he remains wanted by US authorities.
