The Jalandhar Police in Punjab have arrested Manjit Singh Bedi, a Punjab man wanted by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in connection with a fraud case involving nearly US$600,000 related to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). The accused, previously on the FBI’s wanted list, was apprehended after police received specific information about his whereabouts and formed a special team to track him.
