The offices of President Obama’s appointee for CIO had his offices raided today. It is unclear as to what exactly the FBI are after.
Associated Press:
Katherine Schweit, spokeswoman for the FBI’s Washington field office, said a search is being conducted that is part of an ongoing investigation.
Schweit declined to say what the subject of the investigation is, or comment further on the case.
Here is some more background from the site Politico.com:
She said two men, Yusuf Acar and Sushil Bansal, had been arrested.
Acar is an information security officer who was also, according to online requests for proposals, responsible for contracting. Bansal is listed on the city’s procurement website as the CEO of the Advanced Integrated Technologies Corporation, which was awarded two technology contracts last year worth a total of $350,000.
The Washington Post and WTOP Radio report that the men are being held on bribery charges.
It’ll be interesting to see how this one plays out.
