Imran Awan Allegedly Tried ‘To Hide His Money' While DOJ Negotiates With Him

Former Democratic IT staffer Imran Awan allegedly tried to "Hide his money" recently.

Embattled former Democratic IT aide Imran Awan has as recently as weeks ago attempted to get someone to create an LLC to hide the ownership of real estate, and two people to buy a $40,000 gold bar for him, sources told The Daily Caller News Foundation.

This while his lawyer has told The Daily Caller News Foundation that Imran "Doesn't have a pot to piss in."

Prosecutors have charged Imran and Alvi with bank fraud related to a House retirement account and a mortgage after the FBI said Imran impersonated his wife and initiated a $300,000 wire transfer to Pakistan, claiming it was for a funeral.

Disappearing money would be key because Republican House officials close to the probe say that not only did huge quantities of House technology equipment disappear, they suspect Imran ran a $7 million "Ghost employee" scheme where no-show employees - one of whom had been most-recently worked at McDonald's - were added to the House payroll as IT administrators.

A source told TheDCNF the purpose of the new LLC Imran wanted them to create was to hold assets, including real estate, but that the assets would remain under Imran's control.

Two sources said that in recent weeks, Imran has discussed providing third parties with money and having them travel to New York City to buy and return with a 1-kilogram gold bar.
