EXCLUSIVE: House Intelligence, Foreign Affairs Committee Members Compromised By Rogue IT Staff
Daily Caller ^ | 2-4-17 | LUKE ROSIAK

Three brothers who managed office information technology for members of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and other lawmakers were abruptly relieved of their duties on suspicion that they accessed congressional computer networks without permission.

Brothers Abid, Imran, and Jamal Awan were barred from computer networks at the House of Representatives Thursday, The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group has learned.

Three members of the intelligence panel and five members of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs were among the dozens of members who employed the suspects on a shared basis.

With those salaries there was something else going on here aside from the obvious. I find it interesting they only worked for Democrats.

The story claims they are in trouble for procurement scams....

Also this probe has been going on for a year...

At these salaries, I find it difficult to belive they had financial issues.

Jamal, who public records indicate is only 22 years old and first began working in the House when he was 20, was paid nearly $160,000 a year, or three times the average House IT staff salary, according to InsideGov, which tracks congressional salaries. Abid was paid $161,000 and Imran $165,000.

Either two, or three brothers. Must be that new math.

Thanks, Velveeta.

Jeebus! They employed the entire cell. They should look into who hired and approved this.

looks like they worked for only RATs.

Capitol Police spokeswoman Eva Malecki said the investigation was still ongoing, and arrests have not been made but staff were “asked to update their security settings.”

Now that they've been fired, lottsa luck finding them.

“Abid, Imran and Jamal share a house in Lorton, Virginia, that is owned by Hina R. Alvi, a woman”

Well, there’s your handler or cell leader.

Alvi has multiple second mortgages. She did not respond to TheDCNF’s request for comment.

Jamal, who public records indicate is only 22 years old and first began working in the House when he was 20, was paid nearly $160,000 a year, or three times the average House IT staff salary, according to InsideGov, which tracks congressional salaries. Abid was paid $161,000 and Imran $165,000.
