A 22-year-old man wanted for murder in India was arrested over the weekend at an Ontario-U.S. border crossing after he was denied entry into Canada.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said in a news release Tuesday that the arrest was made on Sunday at the Peace Bridge border crossing to Fort Erie, Ont., from Buffalo, N.Y.

According to CBP, Vishat Kumar illegally entered the United States in 2024 and failed to attend an asylum interview. He was denied entry into Canada on Sunday.

CBP alleges Kumar was concealing his identity during a secondary inspection; biometric technology confirmed his true identity, revealing he was allegedly using a false name and date of birth, CBP said. Investigators later learned he was wanted for murder in India, according to an Interpol notice.
