Four people have been federally indicted by a grand jury in Seattle for their involvement in a human smuggling conspiracy to bring citizens of India into the United States across the U.S.-Canada border for profit, according to a Thursday afternoon U.S. Department of Justice press release.
The four people indicted have been linked to two smuggling events that occurred in November and December near Peace Arch Park in Blaine involving eight citizens of India, according to the DOJ press release.
The four people indicted are Rajat Rajat, 26, of Santa Rosa, Calif.; Sushil Kumar, 35, also of Santa Rosa; Bobby Joe Green, 67, also of Santa Rosa; and Sneha, 20, an Indian citizen who is in the U.S. on a student visa and goes by only her last name.
Rajat was arrested in Chicago; Kumar and Green were arrested in Santa Rosa; and Sneha was arrested in Renton, Wash., and released on an appearance bond, the press release states.
