DUBLIN — A misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter case is likely to be put on hold indefinitely after the defendant was reportedly deported to India, according to court records.

Palvindra Singh, 51, of Bremerton, Wash., was facing a misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter count alleging he caused the April 27, 2023 death of Juan Chan Saltay by speeding, leading to a five-car crash on Interstate 680 in Pleasanton. Singh was charged last year and was out of custody, hoping to complete a diversion program in lieu of criminal prosecution, court records show.
