AN INDIAN national was sentenced to 12 years in federal prison for attempting to entice a minor into illegal sexual activity, a US Attorney announced on Thursday (25).
Court documents showed that from September 20, 2022, to October 6, 2022, Upendra Aduru, 32, an Indian national in the United States on a student visa, communicated via social media with a detective posing as a thirteen-year-old girl.
During the communication, Aduru repeatedly expressed his desire to engage in sexual activity with the purported thirteen-year-old and even sent the undercover detective several images of adult pornography.
Aduru also repeatedly sought to meet with the girl and eventually travelled to a park in Millcreek Township after setting up a meeting with the girl.
He was arrested after his arrival and a search of his phone revealed the social media communications between Aduru and the undercover detective, a media release said.
