Fergus Falls, MN – Federal prosecutors are nearing the conclusion of their case against two men accused of being involved in a human smuggling ring in Minnesota.
Steve Shand and Harshkumar Patel face multiple charges related to smuggling migrants from India into the United States.
The jury recently heard testimony from a 23-year-old man who was forced to walk across the Canadian border in a blizzard in 2022. Tragically, a family of four died during this journey. The witness reported that he walked for five or six hours before finally encountering a van driven by one of the defendants.
Prosecutors expect to call their final witness later today (November 21st).
