The U.S. Embassy in India on July 28 issued a public statement backing the Federal Bureau of Investigation's efforts to trace a wanted fugitive believed to be in India.
The embassy’s post came nearly four weeks after the FBI added Cindy Rodriguez Singh to its Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list and announced a reward of up to $250,000 for information leading to her arrest.

“We welcome our collaboration with Indian authorities to bring her to justice,” the U.S. Embassy in India posted on X, and urged the public to come forward with tips.
Rodriguez Singh, also known as Cecilia Rodriguez and Cindy C. Rodriguez, is accused of killing her son, Noel Rodriguez-Alvarez, in Everman, Texas. She was last seen in late March 2023, when she flew to India with her husband and six other children. Noel was not with them, and police say there has been no sign of him since November 2022.
Authorities allege that Rodriguez Singh abused Noel, who had physical and developmental challenges, in the months leading up to his disappearance. Investigators believe he was murdered and that his remains were likely discarded in a dumpster. His body has not been found.
An arrest warrant for Rodriguez Singh was first issued in March 2023 for child endangerment, and later upgraded to capital murder of a person under 10. She was officially charged with capital murder in October 2023. On Nov. 2, 2023, a federal warrant was issued for unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.
The FBI believes she has remained outside the U.S. since fleeing and may be moving between locations. She has ties to both India and Mexico.
Rodriguez Singh is described as between 5 feet 1 inch and 5 feet 3 inches tall, weighing 120 to 140 pounds, with brown eyes, brown hair, and several tattoos. The FBI has warned she may be armed and dangerous and urged anyone with information to contact their local FBI office or the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate.
She is the 531st person to be added to the agency’s most wanted list, and only the 11th woman since the program began in 1950.
