Imran Awan, his brothers and their associates were merely doing what they were ordered to do by Democratic members of Congress when the IT aides allegedly falsified records on how the members office budgets were spent, according to lawyers for Awan.
**SNIP**
One of Imrans lawyers, Aaron Page, who acknowledged the invoicing discrepancy on office equipment last month, told DCNF, This is just how things have been done for forever. This is what experienced members of Congress expect: to expedite things, they adjust the pricing.
Luke Rosiak of DCNFs Investigative Group noted that If members or senior staff instructed IT aides to misrepresent how budgets were spent, that could potentially explain why officials have not charged the Awans with crimes related to procurement, even a full year after House authorities gathered documentation showing invoices that claimed expensive technological items cost $499 instead of their true price: potentially an open-and-shut violation.

It adds up IF you have nearly all of the Awan clan on your tax-paid
Congressional payroll. ALL conducting the same fraud; plus kickbacks.
When asked about his IT employee, Imram's pal, Rao Abbas, Missouri Democrat Emmanuel Cleaver said, Who? I dont even know him. Cleaver stupidly added that his chief of staff put Abbas on Cleaver's payroll apparently without Cleaver's knowledge or consent.
Also unknown to him? Democrat Emanuel Cleaver, at one point, had five of the six members of the Awan group, including Rao Abbas, on his House payroll....all cashing US govt paychecks.
Rao got fired from fast foodie, McDonald's, but Abbas mysteriously got on Cleaver's US govt payroll as an IT and got paid $85,049 tax dollars in 2016.
Besides Cleaver, Rao Abbas was raking in the bucks, on the House payroll of (A) former Florida Democrat Cong Patrick Murphy, and (B) Democrats Cong Charlie Crist of Florida and (C) Jacky Rosen of Nevada, who took office in January.
NOTE: Some fellow IT'rs say Rao was a no-show. They never saw Rao on the job in Congress.
