A federal grand jury charged an Indian man with smuggling a dozen people from Canada into the United States.
The U.S. Justice Department says 22-year-old Shivam Lnu allegedly smuggled Indian nationals across the U.S.-Canada border into Clinton County in New York.
The DOJ says U.S. Border Patrol agents tried to stop two vehicles traveling one behind another near the border on Jan. 26, 2025.
The DOJ said the suspect is facing a mandatory minimum sentence of five years and a maximum sentence of 15 years, if convicted of all four counts of illegally smuggling aliens into the country.
The department said Lnu was initially charged by criminal complaint with one count of conspiracy to transport aliens in June.
