The FBI has announced a $1 million reward for information leading to the capture of Satinderjeet Singh, also known as Goldy Brar. Singh is a member of the Lawrence Bishnoi Organized Crime Group and faces federal charges including extortion, racketeering, and murder.

The issuance of this reward is intended to expedite the arrest of Singh, who remains one of five fugitives still at large following a massive federal indictment. His capture is a key priority for law enforcement agencies investigating the Bishnoi network's international criminal operations.
The FBI issued a $1 million reward for the capture of Satinderjeet Singh as part of a 37-defendant federal indictment announced on July 7, 2026. While 24 defendants were arrested during Operation Hard Ball, five individuals remain outstanding fugitives.
