washingtonpost.com/investigations…

(60) Alvi was the only one authorised to access the server, but out of the 5,700 times it was accessed, Alvi accounted for less than 300 visits.

washingtonpost.com/investigations…

(61) The Congressional networks being accessed by Alvi, the Awan brothers and Abbas apparently contained zero classified information. The networks did contain Representatives' e-mails, however they could not access the e-mails without the password.

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(69) She submitted her federal tax returns for both 2014 and 2015. It listed no rental income on the tax forms, for neither herself now Imran.

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(70) In fact, at no stage did she even hint that she was earning rental income.

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(71) The HELOC loan documents were then sent to the e-mail address [e-mail], which is the e-mail address for Imran Awan. At no point did Alvi use this e-mail address.

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(72) However, Alvi consented to have the documents signed electronically.

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(73) On December 13, 2016, Alvi then applied for another HELOC for the 9667 Hawkshead Drive property for $250,000.00.

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(75) On January 4, 2017, Alvi apparently sent an e-mail back to the Congressional Federal Credit Union, stating that 4387 Pembrook Village Drive was not rented out in 2014 or 2015.

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(76) On January 5, 2017, the Congressional Federal Credit Unit stated that the HELOC loan had been approved for $165,000.00.

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(77) On January 12, 2017, Alvi completed an Occupancy and Financial Status Affidavit to close the HELOC loan, placing the 4809 Sprayer Street property as her principal residence.

nytimes.com/2017/07/28/us/…

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(78) However, there was already a resident residing at 4809 Sprayer Street, which made this impossible.

nytimes.com/2017/07/28/us/…

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(79) Alvi also claimed that the 9667 Hawkshead Drive property would be used as her second residence. This, later, turned out to be false.

zerohedge.com/news/2017-08-2…

(80) After this, the Congressional Federal Credit Union transferred $165,000.00 for the HELOC loan on 4809 Sprayer Street, and $120,000.00 for 9667 Hawkshead Drive.

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(83) She listed her contact number as 202 225 0346, alongside Imran's e-mail address.

nytimes.com/interactive/20…

(84) When a wire transfer specialist contacted the number on the application - which turned out to be Imran's work contact number - Imran then pretended to be Alvi.

sun-sentinel.com/news/nationwor…

(85) Imran initially claimed the monies in the wire transfer would be used for funeral arrangements, but then edited his reason to be for the purchase of property.

nytimes.com/2017/07/28/us/…

(86) Alvi then applied for a financial hardship withdrawal from her thrift savings plan to pay for medical expenses.

sun-sentinel.com/news/nationwor…

(87) She requested $202,859.00, with Imran signing the form to confirm the request.

zerohedge.com/news/2017-08-2…

(92) On February 22, 2017 (roughly), the Thrift Savings Plan transferred the financial hardship withdrawal of $202,859.00 into a joint bank account held by Alvi and Imran at PNC Bank, which had zero funds in it beforehand.

zerohedge.com/news/2017-08-2…

(93) On February 27, 2017 (roughly), Alvi wrote a cheque for $119,354.90 from the joint account to pay off the balance of her HELOC for 9667 Hawkshead Drive, instead of using it for medical expenses.

zerohedge.com/news/2017-08-2…

(94) On February 28, 2017, Rep. Meeks dismissed Alvi from service.

nationalreview.com/article/449983…

politico.com/story/2017/03/…

(95) Rep. Meeks said she was fired because the investigation was interrupting the work of his office, not because of any guilt.

heavy.com/news/2017/07/i…

(96) On the same day, $83,199.84 was transferred from Alvi's joint bank account to another HELOC account held by Alvi at PNC Bank.

zerohedge.com/news/2017-08-2…

nationalreview.com/corner/449860/…

(105) The monies were hidden within a suitcase.

dailycaller.com/2017/08/17/two…

dailycaller.com/2017/08/17/two…

(110) Alvi had no plans to return to the United States, according to Christopher Gowen, due to right-wing bloggers fixating on the lives of the Awan family.

edition.cnn.com/2017/07/26/pol…

(111) Gowen also claimed that Alvi left the United States due to the high cost of living in Washington, DC.

dailycaller.com/2017/08/17/two…
