Gara Singh was the Director of the Caprica City bureau of the Caprican Global Defense Department in the years before the First Cylon War.

Investigating the STO

Though Singh's GDD bureau had been saddled with mostly trivial cases, the bombing of the Metropolitan Levitation Mass Transit System by monotheist Ben Stark and the resurgence of the Soldiers of the One terrorist group became Singh and his intestigators' primary focus (CAP: "The Reins of a Waterfall", "Gravedancing").

MagLev Train 23 and Holocafe Bombings

Staying mostly on the sidelines as Agents Duram and Youngblood made inquiries into the bombing, Singh stepped in when he discovered a tape of the bomber, Stark, being interrogated by Youngblood one year before the bombing for possession of explosives. Singh suggested the tape be destroyed and Duram and Youngblood step up their game, inspiring a major break in the case (CAP: "The Reins of a Waterfall").

As the STO began bombing Holocafes throughout Caprica City, Singh was initially hesitant to attribute the crimes to a resurgence of the monotheist terrorists. However, when the Inter-Colonial Court on Libran handed down a warrant allowing the search of the Athena Academy - where Ben Stark and his suspected accomplice Zoe Graystone attended - Singh reluctantly allowed Agent Duram to proceed, telling him, though, to keep it "tasteful".

In scenes deleted from the episode "Know Thy Enemy", Agent Duram secures high tech equipment for the GDD office that would allow quick identification of potential suspects by searching the entire "Caprican Mesh". As a test group, Duram used members of the GDD, including his partner Youngblood and Director Singh, both of whom came up clean.

The storyline continued into scenes later omitted from "The Imperfections of Memory" in which Duram and the GDD installed cameras at Atlas Arena to scan faces in the stadium and pinpoint any possible STO members. Throughout this investigation, Singh is hesitant about the sidestepping of "certain liberties" apparently so easy for Agent Duram. Capturing and detaining a suspect, Duram expresses his disgust for the monotheist movement and Singh reins him.
