Indian Truck Driver Indicted in Meth Ring | Fresno News

A 50-year-old Indian national, Kawal Preet Singh, faces federal charges for trafficking methamphetamine and possessing a firearm linked to drug crimes in Fresno. Authorities say he was part of a covert network of Sikh truck drivers smuggling hundreds of kilograms of cocaine from Mexico into the U.S. for a Mexican cartel. Search warrants at his Tulare pizza restaurant and home uncovered over 18 kilograms of suspected meth, cash, and a handgun. Singh claims he was storing drugs for a friend and pleaded not guilty. This case is part of a sweeping FBI crackdown on Indian organized crime syndicates in California, with recent operations targeting drug trafficking, extortion, and human trafficking tied to Mexican cartels.
