Wanted on Suspicion of: Child Sex Trafficking, Money Laundering, Att. Sexual Conduct w/ Minor
In July of 2021, Special agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), recently partnered with the Tempe, Phoenix, Scottsdale and Mesa Police Departments along with the FBI and the Arizona Attorney General’s Office on an Internet Crimes Against Children sting, announced the results with nearly three dozen arrests.
The operation known as “Behind the Mask” was an undercover operation that targeted the demand for child sex crimes and human trafficking. Throughout the operational period, undercover detectives placed ads on websites commonly sought out by suspects seeking illegal sex acts. The suspects reportedly solicited and/or brokered deals for various sex acts and were subsequently arrested.
One of those arrested under the sting was then 37-year-old Boopathiraja Kandasamy.
However, it appears that Kandasamy either bonded out and/or stopped showing up for his court dates, since Maricopa online court records show a warrant for his arrest issued on June 14th, 2022 (with the only other event being withdrawal of counsel- I assume the attorney not wanting to be associated with a fugtiive):

Additionally, as of August 7th, 2023, Kandasamy is now listed on the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office website as one of their most wanted fugitives:
