A Texas mom who claimed she sold her 6-year-old disabled son and then fled to India with her family after being questioned has been captured.
Cindy Rodriguez-Singh, who was recently placed on the FBI’s “10 Most Wanted Fugitives” list, found herself in this position following her October 2023 indictment related to the murder of Noel Rodriguez-Alvarez. FBI Director Kash Patel shared the news of her arrest on Twitter, expressing gratitude to law enforcement in Texas and India for their cooperation in the matter.
He provided no further information. The now-captured fugitive’s current location is unknown.
The charges against Rodriguez-Singh include capital murder, harm to a child, and abandonment without intent to return, according to CrimeOnline. The child, Rodriguez-Alvarez, was declared missing in March 2023. Rodriguez-Singh, alongside her husband, Arshdeep Singh, and their six children, went to India soon after police questioned them.
Noel was not on board that flight.
Authorities noted that the last recorded sighting of the boy was in October 2022, following Rodriguez-Singh’s delivery of twins. During that period, he appeared undernourished. The police reported that Rodriguez-Singh had referred to her son as “evil,” refused to provide him with food or water to avoid changing his diaper, and allegedly used car keys as a weapon against him.
Rodriguez-Singh had allegedly mentioned to family that she sold her son to an unidentified woman, a claim unsupported by police evidence. Similarly, her assertion that the boy resided in Mexico with his biological father was also uncorroborated.
Despite the family’s departure from the United States, investigators have diligently pursued the investigation, examining all leads to locate the missing child. In a significant development, on October 31, 2023, they presented the case to a grand jury, leading to an indictment.
It remains uncertain when Rodriguez-Singh will be brought back to Texas to confront the charges, or if she is already there. As of now, she does not appear in the Tarrant County jail records, where the case originated.
