Manjinder Singh, a 26-year-old New Jersey resident, has been charged with participating in a conspiracy to sell synthetic marijuana from a GM Foodmart store in Forty Fort, Pennsylvania.
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, Singh and his co-conspirators allegedly obtained synthetic marijuana from out-of-state suppliers and sold it to customers from the store.
The Information alleges that Singh distributed synthetic marijuana to others on six occasions.
The charge against Singh resulted from an investigation by the IRS Criminal Investigative Division, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the Pennsylvania State Police.
Mastan Mathan, the owner and operator of the store, recently pleaded guilty to a money laundering conspiracy involving proceeds from the sale of synthetic marijuana.
If convicted, Singh faces up to 20 years in prison and a $1 million fine.
The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Francis P. Sempa.
