The FBI had also found firearms and a fused “pineapple” hand grenade at his home and had to detonate the explosives at the residence, officials said.

Singh now faces up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine for unlawfully dealing in firearms, and up to 10 years and a $250,000 fine for unlawfully possessing a machine gun.

Singh is scheduled to be sentenced on May 11, 2026, and remains in federal custody.
