WASHINGTON (HRNW)<\/b> \u2014 In a coordinated multinational law enforcement operation, authorities in the United States, Canada, and Europe have arrested 24 individuals linked to three India-based international criminal syndicates. The US Department of Justice confirmed that the extensive sweep follows a multi-year federal investigation targeting illicit networks allegedly operating with significant impunity across international borders. The developments have renewed global scrutiny over transnational security networks and state-linked operations.<\/p>\n

According to federal prosecutors in Los Angeles, the indicted networks\u2014which include members of the notorious Lawrence Bishnoi gang\u2014face extensive charges involving target killings, extortion, and international narcotics trafficking. Crucially, the indictments link these criminal entities to the high-profile 2023 assassination plot of Sikh leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar outside a temple in British Columbia, Canada. Patrick Grandy, Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI\u2019s Los Angeles Field Office, stated that the operation successfully disrupted syndicates utilizing systemic violence to intimidate communities across multiple western jurisdictions.<\/p>\n

The unsealed judicial documents name a total of 37 defendants, highlighting a complex operational structure where at least two key leaders managed global operations while incarcerated within Indian correctional facilities. As international law enforcement agencies hunt for ten remaining fugitives across the US, India, and Europe, First Assistant US Attorney Bill Eisley reinforced that transnational syndicates exporting fear and violence will face the full punitive power of the federal legal system.<\/p>\n
