The FBI has added Cindy Rodriguez-Singh to its Ten Most Wanted list for allegedly killing her six-year-old son, Noel Alvarez, in 2023. Not only this, they are offering a staggering $250,000 (Rs 2.14 crore) reward for anyone who offers information on the fugitive. She fled the US with her husband, Arshdeep Singh, and six children in March 2023 and may be hiding in India read more Cindy Rodriguez-Singh, who is believed to have fled the US in March 2023 with her husband, Arshdeep Singh and their six other children, is suspected to be hiding in India. She is on FBI's 'Most Wanted' list. Image courtesy: FBI The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has added Cindy Rodriguez-Singh, a 40-year-old woman with ties to India and Mexico, to its Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list for her alleged role in the murder of her six-year-old son, Noel Rodriguez-Alvarez. Rodriguez-Singh, who is believed to have fled the US in March 2023 with her husband, Arshdeep Singh and their six other children, is suspected to be hiding in India. On Tuesday, the FBI announced it was raising the reward for information that leads to her arrest and conviction from $25,000 (Rs 21.4 lakh) to a staggering $250,000 (Rs 2.14 crore). The Bureau confirmed this is one of the highest rewards currently being offered for a fugitive. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD So, how did this case unfold? And who is the woman at the centre of it all? Here's what we know. The mysterious disappearance of Noel Alvarez Six-year-old Noel Rodriguez Alvarez was last seen in October 2022, around the same time his mother, Cindy Rodriguez Singh, gave birth to twins. Months later, on March 20, 2023, officers from the Everman Police Department in Texas carried out a welfare check at the request of the state's Child Protective Services, who were tipped off about the possible neglect and disappearance of the child. Six-year-old Noel Rodriguez Alvarez was last seen in October 2022. Image courtesy: Everman Police Department When questioned, Rodriguez Singh told police that Noel was living with his biological father in Mexico and had been there since November 2022. But just two days after that visit, on March 22, Cindy, her husband Arshdeep Singh, and their six other children boarded a flight to India. Noel wasn't with them. According to both the FBI and local police, he never boarded that plane—and hasn't been seen since. From thereon, Rodriguez Singh has remained out of sight. Investigators believe she could be hiding either in India or Mexico. What happened to Noel? Noel reportedly suffered from chronic lung disease and needed oxygen to breathe. But instead of receiving care, the little boy reportedly endured terrifying abuse. As reported by USA Today, Rodriguez Singh allegedly believed her son was 'evil, possessed or [had] a demon in him.' In the days before his disappearance, she is said to have told people she feared Noel might 'hunt' her newborn twins. Witnesses later told police that Rodriguez Singh would deprive Noel of food and water, refusing to feed him just because she didn't want to change his diapers. One account described her striking him in the face with a set of keys when he tried to drink water. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD She also gave conflicting stories about Noel's whereabouts. In one version, she claimed she had 'sold' him to a woman in the parking lot of a Fiesta Mart supermarket, but police found no evidence to back that up. Former Everman Police Chief Craig Spencer confirmed that no sale or exchange ever took place. FBI Dallas hosted a press conference today to announce Cindy Rodriguez Singh as the 537th fugitive placed on the FBI's Top Ten Most Wanted List. She is wanted for allegedly killing her 6-year-old son, Noel Alvarez. — FBI Dallas (@FBIDallas) July 1, 2025 Investigators also uncovered a disturbing detail: the day before the family fled the country, Arshdeep Singh was seen disposing of a carpet in a dumpster near their home. A police dog trained to sniff out human remains alerted police to both the carpet and the new patio at the family's residence. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD How Rodriguez-Singh ended up on the FBI's 'most wanted' list In the months after Rodriguez-Singh and her family fled the US, the investigation into Noel Alvarez's disappearance only intensified, and so did the case against her. On October 31, 2023, authorities formally charged Rodriguez-Singh with capital murder in the District Court of Tarrant County in Fort Worth, Texas. Just days later, on November 2, a federal arrest warrant was issued by the US District Court for the Northern District of Texas, charging her with Unlawful Flight to Avoid Prosecution. Initially, the FBI had announced a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to her arrest. But on July 2, 2025, the agency raised the reward to $250,000 and also placed Rodriguez-Singh on its Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list, one of the highest-profile fugitive lists in the world. The FBI is offering a reward of up to $250,000 for information leading to the arrest of Cindy Rodriguez Singh. Calls can be made to 1-800-CALL-FBI or to FBI Dallas at 972-559-5000.

'This is a promise we made to him and to this community, that we would never stop until those responsible are held accountable.' At a press conference held by the FBI on Tuesday, R Joseph Rothrock, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI's Dallas Field Office, reiterated that message, 'The message to Cindy [Rodriguez Singh] is we aren't going to stop [looking]. We're going to keep seeking justice for Noel.' Rodriguez-Singh, born in Dallas, Texas, in 1985, is 39 years old.
