- U.S. immigration officials detained him in Los Angeles for using fraudulent documents under the alias “Bhanu” and notified the FBI and Indian counterparts before deportation.
- He is wanted in high-profile cases including the Baba Siddique murder, the shooting outside Salman Khan’s residence, and the killing of Sidhu Moosewala, with an NIA reward previously announced.
