Two Indian nationals were indicted by a federal grand jury in Wichita, Kansas, on charges of wire‑fraud conspiracy and interference with commerce by threat. Venkateswara Reddy Chagamreddy, 27, of San Antonio, Texas, and Sai Praveen Kommana, 29, of Frisco, Texas, are accused of posing as FBI agents and defrauding a Kansas victim from May to September 2025. Prosecutors say the pair lured the victim into purchasing $255,287 of gold, claiming it would be stored by a federal agency, and persuaded the victim to transfer the gold to protect against alleged identity theft and potential jail time. The FBI has stated it never contacts citizens in this manner. Assistant U.S. Attorney Katie Andrusak is prosecuting the case. An indictment is an allegation; defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
