Prosecutors allege that Singh harassed Cunningham between Sept. 30, 2025, and June 2, 2026, through a repeated course of harassment that made her feel “terrorized, scared, intimidated, or threatened.”
Singh is also accused of communicating a threat to John Ball, vice president of security and event services for Pacers Sports & Entertainment, between June 1 and June 11. Prosecutors say the alleged threat was retaliation for Ball sending Singh a cease and desist letter.

The probable cause affidavit lays out a timeline that began on Sept. 30, 2025, when Singh allegedly personally delivered a package addressed to “Sophie” at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Security cameras captured Singh entering the arena and leaving the package with a security guard. Singh allegedly said the package was from his daughter and was intended for a player.
The package contained a Guns N’ Roses t-shirt sprayed with men’s cologne and a letter addressed to Cunningham. The letter thanked Cunningham for “a very special season” and was signed with a variation of the name linked to Singh’s X account, investigators said.
Pacers Sports & Entertainment later began monitoring an X account that investigators said belonged to Singh.
Investigators say the account made multiple posts directed at Cunningham, including sexually explicit comments and references to Singh’s proximity to her.
One post included in the submission read: “You are literally at the end of my street!” Another allegedly referenced a building visible in the background of one of Cunningham’s posts and suggested his building was safe.

Lt. Darren Stonehouse of the Marion County Sheriff’s Office interviewed Cunningham on Monday.
Cunningham told investigators that he first became aware of Singh’s posts in February after Dana Harvey, director of executive protection, warned him about the nature of the posts.
Cunningham said he read some of the messages and was also told about the package delivered to Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
At first, Cunningham told investigators he thought Singh was another person posting disturbing things online.
But she said the continuous posts made her stay home more often and have nightmares. Cunningham also told investigators that she felt like he was always looking out for her, she didn’t feel safe and was afraid of Singh.
She said she never met Singh, never responded to his social media posts and wanted the posts to stop.
Ball sent Singh a cease and desist letter on April 30 due to the number and nature of the positions.

The letter said Pacers Sports & Entertainment had become aware of “increasingly problematic, inappropriate and unwanted communications” toward Cunningham. He ordered Singh to stop all communication with Cunningham or any other Indiana Fever players or employees.
He also informed Singh that he was banned from Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Pacers Sports & Entertainment property and any Fever events or official team activities.
The posts continued after the letter was sent, prosecutors say.

Singh later called Ball’s office and said he understood the need to protect players but did not agree with the letter.
Ball told investigators that Singh’s posts became more hostile and threatening after that conversation.
Several June posts included in the filing were directed at Ball. One allegedly said Ball would see to it that Singh could also get close. Another said: “The pain is coming. I promise.”
Ball told investigators he believed Singh was threatening him with physical harm.
Ball also said Singh made reference to his wife and the county where he lives, which caused him concern. He said the situation led him to alter some of his daily activities, begin carrying a firearm and contact local police to conduct additional patrols around his home.
Prosecutors requested bail higher than the standard amount, citing Singh’s prior convictions for harassment, intimidation and invasion of privacy. The state also said Singh was on probation in Hendricks County for two invasion of privacy convictions when the alleged conduct occurred.
The state requested that home detention and GPS monitoring be included as conditions of release.
A public summary of the case shows that a magistrate found probable cause Wednesday and granted the state’s request for higher-than-standard bail.
A Marion Superior Court staff member confirmed to OutKick/Pak Gazette Digital that Singh is in custody for seven days that began June 24. After that, he faces $40,000 cash bail with home detention and GPS monitoring with exclusion zone monitoring.

A court order signed June 24 also prohibits Singh from entering Gainbridge Fieldhouse until the case is resolved or the court vacates the order. A no contact order was also issued.
Singh’s initial hearing is scheduled for Thursday morning, June 25. The public summary of the case did not include a defense attorney for Singh as of Wednesday afternoon.
The allegations against Singh come on top of recent harassment cases involving high-profile female basketball players now playing in the WNBA.
Michael Lewis, a Texas man, was sentenced last year to two and a half years in prison after pleading guilty to stalking and harassing Fever star Caitlin Clark. Authorities said Lewis sent Clark threatening and sexually explicit messages before being arrested in Indianapolis.

Paige Bueckers, now a shooting guard for the Dallas Wings, was also the subject of a harassment case before entering the WNBA. Robert Cole Parmalee pleaded guilty in Connecticut to second-degree harassment after being accused of harassing and threatening Bueckers while she played at UConn.
Parmalee received a one-year suspended sentence and three years of probation. She was banned from being around the UConn team and WNBA facilities.
