Federal endpoint review October 13, 2026: The official BOP locator identifies Ramanan Mylvaganam, register 77608-053, age 50, noncustody as of May 15, 2012. The uncommon full name, existing register and age are consistent with the contemporary May 2012 report, which identifies the defendant as 35 and describes a time-served sentence. The actual BOP endpoint is used rather than the sentencing day or previously rejected May 2026 date. Any subsequent immigration custody or travel is separate; admission and an identifiable usable photograph remain unresolved.
