FBI agents of the US are investigating Ilhan Omar for probable marriage fraud. She is accused of having married British citizen Ahmed Nur Said Elmi who actually is said to be her brother. This marriage was an eye wash and meant to facilitate Ahmed getting a green card and scholarship benefits for US studies.
The Blaze report about Ilhan Omar
Earlier this month, The Blaze reported that US FBI agents had a meeting in October 2019 with a party. This concerned party handed over to the agents documents pertaining to the Minnesota Democrat’s marriage to British citizen Ahmed Nur Said Elmi who was her second husband. The couple married in 2009.
A source revealed that the FBI department has decided to give the documents the two agents had procured to the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. But they did not say anything on whether they would be initiating an investigation into Ilhan themselves.
The Minnesota state Rep. Steve Drazkowski (R) had filed a complaint with Minnesota District of the Department of Justice on this matter. The latter then asked the FBI to review the complaint.
The allegations against Ilhan
There are allegations against Ilhan that in 2009 she married her second husband, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi who is from the UK in order to help him get a green card and financial benefits for studies. Ahmed Nur Said Elmi is actually her brother.
