NEW YORK -(Dow Jones)- New York businessman and prominent Democratic fund- raiser Hassan Nemazee was indicted Monday for allegedly defrauding three banks out of $292 million in loans.
Nemazee, 59 years old, was charged with aggravated identity theft and three counts of bank fraud in the indictment. Each bank fraud count carries a term of up to 30 years in prison.
A lawyer for Nemazee didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
Nemazee, who was involved in various presidential campaigns and once served as finance chairman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, was initially charged criminally in August related to a loan he allegedly obtained fraudulently from Citigroup Inc.'s (C) Citibank unit.
Prosecutors from the U.S. Attorney's office in Manhattan also are seeking $292 million in forfeiture in the case.
In the indictment, prosecutors alleged that Nemazee obtained hundreds of millions of loans from Bank of America Corp. (BAC), Citigroup and HSBC Holdings Plc (HBC) between 1998 and 2009.

He was born in the US but as the son of an Iranian diplomat he's not a natural born US citizen.
C 1950 : (NEMAZEE IS BORN IN WASHINGTON DC - THE SON OF AN IRANIAN DIPLOMAT) Nemazee was born in Washington, D.C., the son of an Iranian shipping magnate then serving as the commercial attach to the U.S. for the Shah's government. After college he formed a joint venture in Iran with insurer American International Group to sell life insurance, but the business fell victim to the Iranian revolution.----------- "Warning Flags," FORBES MAGAZINE, 1999 ; http://www.forbes.com/forbes/1999/0503/6309142a_print.html
Another candidate for an “aspirin overdose”????
Nemazee and Angulo had grand plans to build their money management business, and at one point contracted to acquire Cisneros Asset Management, a Houston firm founded by Henry Cisneros, a former Secretary of Housing & Urban Development (and no relation to the Venezuelan Cisneroses). Cisneros Asset Management had $700 million-plus under management. The deal fizzled, and FCA's business dwindled.------------ "Warning Flags," FORBES MAGAZINE, 1999 ; http://www.forbes.com/forbes/1999/0503/6309142a_print.html
