A House IT staffer at the center of a congressional computer equipment scandal has been arrested by federal officials and charged with bank fraud, Fox News has learned.
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.
Law enforcements authorities for months have been looking into how Awan may have double-billed the House for equipment like computers, iPads, monitors, keyboards and routers. Several relatives of Awan worked for House Democrats and were fired months ago. Awan, however, was kept on staff by Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., even though he was no longer allowed access to the House server network.
Wasserman Schultz, though, has now fired Awan. Spokesman David Damron said Tuesday in a statement.

Cernovich claims this could save Sessions
If so...it will only be short term. Trump is seething
He was RELEASED....with a monitor....idiocy! WHER’S THE OTHER AWANS?????
Debbie Blabbermouth Schlitz.
Its almost as if the Feds WANT these crooks to get away.
Ever see “16 Blocks”?
To their credit, True Pundit at least acknowledges the work George Webb has been doing on this:
What country doesn’t have an extradition with the USA anymore?
His head should be put in a vice...while he is waterboarded.
Witnesses around DWS have a short lifespan. Better watch his back and stay away from beaches.
The shoes. They are starting to drop.
Can the Feds track that GPS gizmo all the way over in Bumcrapistan?
And I ran
I ran so far away
I just ran
I ran all night and day
I couldn’t get away
A Flock of Smeagles
Is this the cockroach the Feebs raided?
If the FBI has him they will cut him a deal on the bank fraud if he doesn’t talk about copying all the DNC and Rat congress emails. Tells them where it is stashed so they can scrub it. The FBI is still controlled by the deep state.
How long before the Rats help him escape from the country?
Another robbery gone bad comin’ up...
I’m sure Awan will turn in ALL his passports, and decline to saw off an ankle bracelet just to escape sure death at the hands of Clinton hitmen.
I don’t think this guy is going to survive long. He now has no protection whatsoever. And he is a danger to the democrat hierarchy including the clintons. which means he vulnerable to passing away due to arkanside.
Yep.
though he was no longer allowed access to the House server network.
= = =
Don’t you think he had set up a Backdoor?
No, No, not that kind, ... but ... maybe both kinds.
