Satinderjeet Singh, 33, who also goes by the name Goldy Brar and other aliases, is wanted on suspicion of conspiracy as part of an organized criminal organization, targeted killings, extortion and narcotics-related crimes, according to the FBI.
The FBI believes Singh is the U.S. ringleader of an India-based transnational organized crime ring responsible for a variety of violent crimes in SoCal and across the United States and Canada.
“These alleged acts include assassinations of political and religious figures, shootings, murders, kidnappings, extortions, assaults and the trafficking of narcotics and weapons,” Patrick Grandy, the Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI’s Los Angeles Field Office, said during a Monday news conference announcing the reward.
In July, federal authorities raided several homes and made several arrests in a years-long investigation into the crime syndicate, but Singh gas evaded authorities.

Agents say Singh specifically targeted people in the U.S. with ties back in India to extort them.
Singh has been charged in federal court in L.A. with violations that include racketeer influenced and corrupt organizations (RICO) conspiracy, conspiracy to interfere and attempted interference with commerce by extortion; and conspiracy to possess controlled substances with intent to distribute.
Authorities say Singh is known to reside in California and parts of Canada and should be considered armed and dangerous.
