The criminal probe by the Capital Police and the FBI into the shenanigans of Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s IT “advisor” just took an interesting turn.

Fox News is told officers and agents from the U.S. Capitol Police, the FBI and Customs and Border Protection were involved in the arrest of Imran Awan at Dulles International Airport.
Awan, 37, of Virginia, pleaded not guilty Tuesday to one count of bank fraud during his arraignment in federal court in Washington, D.C. He was released but will have to wear a GPS monitor and abide by a curfew.
Awan also was ordered to turn over all his passports. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Aug. 21.
Wiring $238,000 to Pakistan in January 2017 certainly explains the bank fraud charges. Keep in mind, as I wrote about here, Imran Awan, his wife, and several other relatives have been wandering the halls of Congress for several years serving as IT “advisors” to multiple DEMOCRAT members of Congress, and made over $4 million while doing so.
But, you know, since the news broke this spring, courtesy of the investigative reporting by Politico and The Daily Caller, many of those same Democrats have done everything they can to distance themselves from this mess. Not so Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
Oh no. She kept Imran on as an employee.

They hauled him into court in about .052 seconds after his arrest and arraigned him on some pretty hefty federal charges.
Awan had been at center of scandal where he allegedly double charged Hse for IT equipment & may have exposed Hse info online

Group of Hse Dems fired other Hse IT staffers probed by USCP. But Wasserman Schultz kept Awan on payroll. He was barred from Hse servers

Fox is told that Hse IT staffer Imran Awan is still on Hse payroll for moment under Wasserman Schultz.

Tell me again why you threatened the Capital Police regarding one of YOUR laptops that was in Imran’s possession? Tell me again why you still kept Imran Awan on as an employee, and didn’t fire him until AFTER he got arrested this afternoon?
Is there some sort of collusion going on that we should know about?

Well Debbie? Since you seem to know SO much about collusion these days? Care to comment?
As usual, not a mention of this on the lame stream media tonight… not that you’d expect such from the propaganda arm of the democrat party…
Pravda has nothing on these clowns!
Awan also was ordered to turn over all his passports.
Wait, what? Note that single letter at the end of the sentence. The man had more than one passport. We really should stop this crap – at least in America.
Good catch GWB!! Passports as in multiple??? The plot definitely thickens!
