The more you learn about Democratic IT scammer Imran Awan — the more you see the profile of a bold and careless criminal mind.
Imran Awan worked for Debbie Wasserman Schultz for thirteen years since she came into office in 2004 as a Florida representative. She only fired him this past week and would have kept paying her “IT expert” even when he was living in Pakistan.
The Awan brothers IT ring had access to emails and computer data from an estimated 800 lawmakers and staffers.
Three Pakistani brothers who managed the IT affairs for several Democratic government officials were relieved of their duties in February on suspicion that they accessed specific computer networks without permission, also known as hacking.
Imran Awan, who started working for Wasserman Schultz in 2005, received $164,600 in 2016, with close to $20,000 of that coming from Wasserman Schultz.
His brother Jamal, who started working as a staffer in 2014, was paid $157,350.12 in 2016. Abid, who started working in 2005, was paid $160,943 in 2016.
Imran’s wife, Hina Alvi, who was employed as a staffer since February 2007, was paid 168,300 in 2016. Rao Abbas was paid $85,049 in 2016.
Abid, Imran, and Jamal Awan were barred from computer networks at the House of Representatives in February.
Most of the House Members fired the Awans subsequently. Only Debbie Wasserman Schultz kept Imran Awan on the pay roll up to the day he got arrest for Bank Fraud after trying to flee the country.
The rest of the family fled since months to Pakistan along with hundreds of thousands of tax-payer money they mysteriously were able to wire.
Democrats were willing or unwillingly compromised by the Awans and Sensitive Information leaked to foreign Enemies! (Muslim Brotherhood – Yemen Raid with dead soldier for example?) Many of them have Seats on Committees that handle highly sensitive information.
According to Redditt — Imran Awan is now released with an GPS ankle monitor until his preliminary hearing on Aug. 21.
More information is coming out on Imran Awan and his criminal activities. Awan pretended to be his wife when requesting a loan from the Congressional Federal Credit Union and got it! He had the credit union wire $165,000 to PAKISTAN – no questions asked. Andrew McCarthy at National Review reported:
Bank fraud was the stated charge on which Awan was arrested at Dulles Airport this week, just as he was trying to flee the United States for Pakistan, via Qatar. That is the same route taken by Awan’s wife, Hina Alvi, in March, when she suddenly fled the country, with three young daughters she yanked out of school, mega-luggage, and $12,400 in cash.
By then, the proceeds of the fraudulent $165,000 loan they’d gotten from the Congressional Federal Credit Union had been sent ahead. It was part of a $283,000 transfer that Awan managed to wire from Capitol Hill. He pulled it off — hilariously, if infuriatingly — by pretending to be his wife in a phone call with the credit union. Told that his proffered reason for the transfer (“funeral arrangements”) wouldn’t fly, “Mrs.” Awan promptly repurposed: Now “she” was “buying property.” Asking no more questions, the credit union wired the money . . . to Pakistan.…
…Congressional-staff salaries are modest, in the $40,000 range. For some reason, Awan was paid about four times as much. He also managed to get his wife, Alvi, on the House payroll . . . then his brother, Abid Awan . . . then Abid’s wife, Natalia Sova. The youngest of the clan, Awan’s brother Jamal, came on board in 2014 — the then-20-year-old commanding an annual salary of $160,000. A few of these arrangements appear to have been sinecures: While some Awans were rarely seen around the office, we now know they were engaged in extensive financial shenanigans away from the Capitol.
Awan also threatened and tried to extort cash from his stepmother after his father’s death. The Daily Caller reported:
Their own stepmother, a devout Muslim, called police in Virginia and said they used high-tech devices to wiretap her home and tried to extort her into signing papers that would give them access to cash stored in Pakistan in their deceased father’s name.
The stepmother, Samina Gilani, said in court documents that Imran said he was “very powerful” and would have her loved ones kidnapped in Pakistan.
Court records show that their father changed his last name, and two relatives said that was because he detested illegal behavior by his sons.
In public lawsuits in Fairfax County, Va., the brothers have been accused of life insurance fraud as well as fraud involving a car dealership.
This is a description of a complete slimeball. Who kicks his stepmother out of her home when she has just lost her husband? The more you read about Imran Awan the more you see the picture of a complete soulless criminal.
So why was he hanging around Wasserman Schultz for 13 years?
Now this… In an interview with the Sun-Sentinel this week Wasserman-Schultz defended her decision to keep Imran on the payroll because there were racial and ethnic profiling concerns.
This was after her IT specialist was barred from the House computer networks in FEBRUARY!
Imran and his wife Hina Alvi were indicted last week on four charges related to mortgage fraud.
Here are photos of Imran and his indicted wife Hina Alvi during better times. Via Democracy Raised from the Dead.
Investigators found several computer servers at the Awan home after they moved out. The Awan brothers also left four government-issued laptops and servers, pried-open hard drives, and twenty Blackberries in the home rented by Marine Andre Taggart.
The Daily Caller reported:
Imran and his wife Hina Alvi were indicted on four charges related to mortgage fraud on Thursday.
They were charged with making false statements on a loan application, unlawful monetary transactions, bank fraud and conspiracy to commit fraud.
Hina Alvi has been in Pakistan with the couple’s children since March, and federal authorities said they do not expect her to return to the United States.
The FBI said Imran and his wife made false statements to obtain a $165,000 home equity loan from the congressional credit union in January.
Days after receiving the loan, they wired nearly $300,000 to two individuals in Pakistan, according to the FBI affidavit.

Thanks for the ping!
Looks like the Awan bros and illary’s server might be connected...
And the Awan bros funneled info outside the country for $.
Last time I checked, that constituted espionage.
Awan bros & illary & anyone else involved oughta be brought up on charges of espionage.
(This is why the left has been pounding on ‘Russia, Russia, Russia’, they know illary & the Awan bros are guilty, so they diverted attention to the alt-right & Russia, Russia, Russia)
I wanted the details of the server eauipment.
I tried reformatting your post and it would not cooperate because of the image size. I never had that happen.
He is a rock star in Pakiville getting near parades when he is there. The fact that he is such a high profile criminal, terrorist, spy, has to have attracted the attention of the CIA.
The mere fact that they allowed him to operate here for 13 years tells me he's also playing them as well as a possible CIA asset. From what I have read about this clown the phrase Imran will do anything for money keeps coming up over and over.
According to George Webb the guy is suspect in everything from murder,of another car dealer, to spying--hacking 80 congress critters which morphs into over 800,car smuggling-- selling stolen cars from the Alpha Jollah car ring and so many other crimes we can't list them all.
That alone tells me he has had someone covering his back with more punch than just his probable gal pal the washerwoman.
He has to have ties with the CIA. It's the only way he has been viable.
Brilliant post way to go!
One of the great things about IT work is that you can often telecommute. /S

=============================================
(HAT TIP IAMACONSERVATIVE): Imran had control of ALL of the
Dems' Blackberrys. If the Dems were using a Blackberry Enterprise Server
(BES), as illustrated here, then Awan could easily have back-doored
all the classified intel, SMS (text messaging) and Email content sent
through the members' Blackberry's for however long he had that access.
Definitely makes Awans' blackmailing elected members a possibility,
and explains the Pakis long-term employment in Congress.
===========================================
It's abundantly clear: Obama and Susan Rice, and the heinous Obama cabal,
had top level intel at their disposal. They HAD to know this was going on.

It’s bad enough when other countries spy on THE UNITED STATES but it’s worse when DEMOCRATS PAY THEM A SALARY TO SPY ON US, ASSIST WITH SELLING THE INFORMATION TO OUR ENEMIES, and attempt to cover up payments ....
Yeah, this needs to be looked at - and without the crooks in the FBI (who work for democrats) making it worse.
Looks like some in the FBI were working for democrats NOT for the UNITED STATE OF AMERICA. Thanks for below links ‘foryourchildren’...

Nice take, GOPJ.
======================================
This Dem has to be the dumbest.
(Hat tip Luke Roziak) According to Daily Caller report, the chief of staff of Awan's employer, NY Democrat Congressman Yvette Clarke, casually signed off on what appears to be a theft ring operating inside the Democrat Congressional Caucus, orchestrated by the Paki's.
The facts thus far suggest the Awan gang was running the oldest of scams......selling computer gear out the back door after first claiming it was stolen to authorities.
The Daily Caller reported the member (or staff) would still have to sign a voucher for each such purchase.
This raises questions regarding how Dumb Democrat Yvette Clarke wouldn’t have noticed (A) that tech equipment was being purchased, (B) in quantities a member's office might not plausibly need, (C) but never actually materialized at the member's office b/c it had been delivered to Imran's residence.
NOTE: Democrat Yvette's Clarke then wrote-off (made disappear) $120,000 of tech devices that would have bought 10 iPhones and 10 iPads for each of her 16 employees. About 80 other Democrats employing the Pakis have not been audited for similar patterns.......as yet.
====================================
Here's the sap-happy Dem blithely "aiding and abetting" the theft of US-govt issue equipment.
"Oh, it's just a measly 120,000 tax dollars.....just write it off."
Cong Yvette Clarke describes herself as a "Caribbean-American."
The 120,000 dollar tech purchase would have bought each of Yvette Clarke's 16-man staff an unbelievable 10 iPods and 10 iPhones each.
Now this… In an interview with the Sun-Sentinel this week Wasserman-Schultz defended her decision to keep Imran on the payroll because there were racial and ethnic profiling concerns.
This was after her IT specialist was barred from the House computer networks in FEBRUARY!
Racial PROFILING fears??
She is saying: “If someone is in the ethnic group matching the global terrorists, we must OVERCOMPENSATE, paying them 3x what another ethnicity who aren’t known for inciting terror would receive. Also, when they fail at their duties, and commit felonies, WE CANT FIRE THEM because their ethnicity is protected. We must keep paying them no matter what they do, so there is no appearance that we are comparing them to their ethnic brethren.”
Someone needs to check if Yvette Clarke is living 'way beyond her means'...
Excellent info. Even with the actual Russian having access to all those sources. $4 million paid out. All by Dem reps. You can’t fathom such crimes by our highest officials, YET ABSOLUTELY NO MEDIA COVERAGE.
if we don’t stand up to this, we are done. And who has Drudge’s balls in a lockbox?

That's taking 'identity politics' to a new criminal high... or she's taking kickbacks...
Good point. Is she living “beyond her means?”
All of Democrat Yvette Clarke’s financial transactions need scrutiny.....especially wire-transfers offshore......to the Caribbean.
Can Democrat Yvette Clarke explain how she did not notice (A) that 120,000 tax dollars of tech equipment was being purchased, (B) in quantities her 16-man office did not plausibly need, (C) but never actually materialized at her office b/c it had been delivered to her IT Imran’s residence?
All these Dems are unqualified to serve in Congress! I don't care how many years they've been in office.
CLEAN HOUSE, AG Sessions!
You can bank on this story not being covered by the Fake Media.
THE PAKIS READING DEMOCRATS' EMAILS IS FAR-REACHING:
<><> constituents must supply their SS no when corresponding w/ their rep;
<><> That means the Pakis had access to numerous SS nos belonging to Americans;
<><> SS nos are a valuable commodity to thieves like the Pakis;
<><>American SS no can be sold for big money abroad;
<><> enables an illegal foreigner to get on the gravy train and enjoy the benefits of US citizenry....even voting.
===========================================
Sap-happy Democrats that employed these Paki scam artists can be nailed not on what they did BUT what
they didn't do in response to the encyclopedia of crimes committed against the United States of America:
<><> Did Democrats ever file police reports about missing and stolen US govt-issue equipment?
<><> Did Democrats ever alert US govt authorities that falsified official documents had been submitted to the US govt?
<><> Did they ever report ghost employees on the US govt payroll, stealing our tax dollars?
<><> Did they ever report no-shows on the IT govt payroll cashing US govt checks?
<><> Did Democrats ever report their concerns about their Paki IT's double-billing the US govt?
<><> Did they ever report irregularities in their IT systems?
<><> Did Democrats ever issue warnings to constituents that emails and private info had been compromised?
