Update: Congressional Computer Admins In Criminal Probe Owed Money To Hez-Connected Fugitive
2017-02-22
[Daily Caller] Congressional aides suspected of criminally misusing their access to House computer systems owed $100,000 to an Iraqi politician who is wanted by U.S. authorities and has been linked to Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed Middle Eastern terrorist outfit.

Imran Awan and four of his relatives were employed as information technology (IT) aides by dozens of House Democrats, including members of the intelligence, foreign affairs and homeland security committees. The aides’ administrator-level IT access was terminated earlier this month amid a criminal probe by U.S. Capitol Police of a suspected security breach, including an off-site server housing congressional data.

The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group has reported that while working for Congress, the Pakistani brothers controlled a limited liability corporation called Cars International A (CIA), a car dealership with odd finances, which took‐and was unable to repay‐a $100,000 loan from Dr. Ali Al-Attar.

#2  LLC, a corporate entity, would shield the brothers from losses incurred by the corporation. The LLC gets the 100 grand, the LLC pays it to the brothers as salary, and it is written off as a loss.

Dr. Ali Al-Attar got something for his money already. What is interesting is some people say the investor, Dr. Ali Al-Attar, does not even exist.
