In another win for the Trump administration, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested an illegal immigrant in California with alleged ties to terrorism. The individual, known as one of India’s most
wanted, was apprehended after overstaying his visa and reportedly
committing several crimes, including assault and planning more than a
dozen grenade attacks on police officials. ICE officials have confirmed
that the man has been classified as a foreign terrorist organization in multiple countries, including India and Canada, for his violent campaign
to carve out a separate Sikh state by force.
Harpreet Singh, also known as “Happy Passia,” one of India’s most-wanted fugitives, was arrested by ICE agents. Singh is connected to a series of violent terrorist attacks targeting police stations and public officials.
He is allegedly an operative of the Khalistani terrorist group Babbar
Khalsa International (BKI), which is banned and believed to have ties to Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). Singh has been linked to at
least 17 criminal cases and is suspected of working with Harwinder Singh Sandhu, a Pakistan-based terrorist, to plan and carry out attacks in
Punjab.
FBI Director Kash Patel praised the agents in the Sacramento division who
led the investigation, commending their collaboration with local and international partners. Patel emphasized that justice will be served.
Singh reportedly entered the U.S. illegally on January 27, 2022, through
an entry point in Arizona. He was arrested by a U.S. Border Patrol agent
from the Tucson sector and placed in removal proceedings, but was later released into the interior of the country.
“The Biden Administration not only let a wanted terrorist into our
country, but after he was arrested by Border Patrol agents, they released
him into the interior of our country,” Tricia McLaughlin, the Homeland
Security assistant secretary for public affairs said.
“While shocking, it’s not surprising given the Biden administration
routinely released unvetted terrorists and criminals into American
communities… Under President Trump and Secretary Noem’s leadership, ICE is unleashed to remove these violent criminals from America’s streets and put
an end to catch and release. We will hunt down, arrest, and lock up
foreign terrorists and criminals who have operated with impunity on
American soil,” she continued.
