In a recent move to step up enforcement operations targeting non-citizens accused or convicted of criminal offenses, US immigration authorities have arrested a 26-year-old Indian national, Parminderpal Singh, in Los Angeles. As per Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Singh, a citizen of India, remains in immigration custody pending removal from the United States. This development comes amidst a broader crackdown on non-citizens with a history of crime in the country.
Singh's arrest is the latest in a series of incidents involving Indian nationals facing detention or deportation proceedings by ICE under various circumstances, including criminal convictions, visa violations, and old immigration orders. One such notable case involved Subramanyam Vedam, who spent 43 years in a Pennsylvania prison for a murder conviction that was later overturned. In 2025, ICE detained him immediately after his release due to a separate decades-old deportation order linked to an earlier drug conviction. Vedam, who had lived in the US since infancy, faced possible deportation to India.
