Source summary
The Department of Homeland Security announced that ICE lodged arrest detainers on January 4, 2026, for two Indian nationals — Gurpreet Singh (25) and Jasveer Singh (30) — arrested by Putnam County, Indiana authorities after officers found 309 pounds of cocaine hidden in the sleeper berth of the semi-truck they were operating. DHS noted both men had Commercial Driver’s Licenses issued by California and criticized Governor Gavin Newsom’s sanctuary policies for previously allowing one of the men to be released despite a detainer. DHS emphasized the public-safety risk, citing a lethal dose of cocaine as low as 1.2 grams.
Latest fact check

Available public reporting confirms that Gurpreet Singh, a 25‑year‑old from Fresno, California, was arrested in Putnam County, Indiana on January 3–4, 2026 after Indiana State Police discovered approximately 309–300+ pounds of cocaine in a semi‑truck, and that ICE placed deportation holds on him and his co‑defendant, indicating prior or pending immigration proceedings. However, none of the independent reports or accessible official documents provide verifiable details about Singh’s exact manner of entry into the U.S., the specific date of entry (March 11, 2023), the precise location (near Lukeville, Arizona), or the claim that he was “released into the country under the Biden administration.” Those immigration-history details appear only in government or political communications that are not independently corroborated in primary public records. Because individual immigration entry records are not publicly accessible and no independent primary source confirms this exact timeline and description, the statement cannot be definitively proven true or false. The verdict is Unverifiable because key elements of the claim concern non-public immigration records and are not corroborated by independent, accessible primary sources.
