New Delhi [India], December 6 (ANI): The United States Embassy in India has urged New Delhi’s cooperation in locating and arresting Hameed Nazeer, a fugitive on the FBI’s Most Wanted list whom the agency says is “known to be living in India.”
In a post on X, the embassy noted the FBI is offering up to USD 50,000 for information or intelligence leading to Nazeer’s arrest or conviction. Nazeer faces charges in New Jersey including two counts of first-degree murder, two counts of third-degree possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, and fourth-degree unlawful possession of a weapon.
“The FBI is offering a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to the arrest and/or conviction of Nazeer Hameed. He remains at large, and we welcome our collaboration with Indian authorities to bring him to justice,” the embassy said.
The FBI reiterated the reward and detailed the charges, saying Nazeer is wanted by New Jersey authorities for his alleged role in the March 23, 2017, killings of Sasikala Narra and her six-year-old son, Anish Narra, inside an apartment in Maple Shade, New Jersey. The agency’s wanted poster states Nazeer is known to be living in India and that the Newark Field Office is assisting local law enforcement in the search.
On February 6, 2025, Nazeer was formally charged in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Burlington County, and a state warrant was issued for his arrest. The FBI warned he “should be considered armed and dangerous” and asked the public to report any information to the nearest FBI office or any American Embassy or Consulate. (ANI)
