Jeff Sessions, testifying at trial of hip hop artist, details high-level deportation discussions

[ad_1]
Prosecutors contend that Michel — who became famous in the 1990s as a member of the Fugees trio — engaged in the international intrigue behind the charges after running short on cash from his music. They say he received $88 million between 2012 and 2017 from Jho Low, a Malaysian businessperson suspected of looting that country’s 1MDB sovereign wealth fund.
Michel’s defense team has argued that he wasn’t acting as an agent for Low or China in his effort to arrange the swap, but acting for humanitarian reasons to aid American citizens and residents who were in distress.
Under questioning by Michel’s attorney David Kenner, Sessions told jurors about a pair of high-level meetings where officials discussed the potential deportation of Guo, who eventually became a close associate of Trump adviser Steve Bannon.
“I remember there was a meeting at the State Department. I believe Homeland Security and the Department of Justice were there – in their conference room,” the former attorney general said.
Sessions also detailed efforts by a Chinese vice minister for public security, Sun Lijun, to arrange a meeting with him to discuss the possibility of deporting Guo. Prosecutors have alleged that Sun was Michel’s contact in the Chinese government and the person urging Michel to try to broker a deal.
“I’m aware that we had a request from the [Chinese] ambassador to meet … that I join and meet with Mr. Sun,” Sessions said.
However, Sessions said he ultimately declined to meet with the Chinese security official. He also said the proposal to deport Guo never proceeded on his watch. Guo was not deported, but he was indicted and arrested last month on charges he perpetrated a billion-dollar fraud scheme. He has pleaded not guilty.
The 76-year-old former attorney general and senator, who spent more than 12 years as U.S. attorney in Alabama and was an unsuccessful nominee for the federal bench during the Reagan administration, was not able to shed much light on Michel’s activities.

“I don’t recall ever having met him,” Sessions said after Michel stood and removed his face mask.
Prosecutors have argued that Michel used various intermediaries, including a DOJ lawyer named George Higginbotham and Republican fundraiser Elliott Broidy, to try to advance the swap and to try to shut down the Justice Department’s investigation into Low’s role in 1MDB.
The key point Kenner appeared to gain during Sessions’ brief tour on the stand Tuesday was the former attorney general’s observation that there was nothing obviously improper about approaching the attorney general’s office or the Justice Department to seek deportation of someone wanted in a foreign country.
“I think that’s an appropriate action, although the State Department would have an important role to play in that and others, perhaps Homeland Security, since this figure was important to China,” Sessions said.
Sessions also testified that he was aware of efforts to get some U.S. citizens out of China, including a pregnant woman who was being denied an exit visa. “We felt she was being improperly detained,” he said.
Prosecutors passed up their chance to cross-examine their former boss. “No questions,” prosecutor Sean Mulryne said.
The trial of Michel, 50, is in its fourth week. The defense kicked off its case on Monday with an opening statement deferred from the outset of the trial. Kenner told jurors in detail about Michel’s history as a successful performer, emphasized that any lobbying his client did was legal and insisted he had no knowledge that he might be required to register as a foreign agent, NBC News reported.

JKCCC Demands High-Level Investigation Into Lapse Of Funds

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: Jammu and Kashmir Contractors Coordination Committee Chairman Ghulam Jeelani Purza, on Monday said that the families of the contractors are on verge of starvation as the pending bills of the contractors have not been released since long.
Requesting LG led administration to conduct a high level inquiry into the frequent fund lapsing, Purza said that funds are being provided by the government on time, however, the same are held by departments for no reason and are provided to the DDOs in the last days of March resulting in fund lapse.
Purza said that this year also funds lapsed and the government officials were responsible for the same. Government should come to the rescue of the contractors and investigation at higher levels should be conducted.
JKCCC Chairman further said, “Government promised us that the money of all the contractors would be released, but the due money has not been released yet. Our money is stuck in R&B, PHE and other departments. For last three years, we have been running around government institutions. Our bills are pending from last many years, and should be settled immediately so that we will get some relief”.
He said that contractors are being harassed in the name of NOC and 345 contractors have been blacklisted. They are asked to bring verification from CID and NOC from police which ultimately makes their families suffer.
Government had made a policy for the rehabilitation of youth under various schemes and one such scheme was provision of contract cards to them. Some were hired as temporary employees and some were given loans. It was provided and invested in business so that the youth could earn their livelihood.
We hope our grievances are redressed at the earliest so that our families won’t have to suffer.

Haryana: Congress MLA demands high-level probe into charred bodies case

[ad_1]
Chandigarh: Aftab Ahmed, Congress MLA from Haryana’s Nuh, on Tuesday demanded a high-level probe into alleged abduction and murder of two Muslim men from Rajasthan, even as he claimed the minorities are feeling “unsafe” in the state.
“I demand that a high-level probe be initiated into the Bhiwani incident. Negligence of policemen and other officials led to two youths losing their lives…action should be taken against erring personnel,” Ahmed said while speaking during Zero Hour in the state assembly here.
Nasir and Junaid, both residents of Ghatmeeka village in Bharatpur district of Rajasthan, were allegedly abducted by cow vigilantes on February 15 and their bodies were found in a charred car in Loharu in Haryana’s Bhiwani the next day. The family members of the deceased had named five men allegedly linked to the Bajrang Dal in their complaint to the police.
The Congress MLA said the accused are “gau rakshaks (cow vigilantes) or connected with them whose track record stated to be criminal. It appears that state government is protecting them”.
“The incident in Bhiwani is horrendous… In Nuh district too, heinous incidents have taken place in the past,” he said, adding that “the minorities are feeling unsafe in Haryana today”.
“At other places too in Haryana, incidents against minorities have been on the increase in recent years on which action taken is not satisfactory,” he alleged.
He said Haryana is known for its brotherhood, “but today seeds of hatred are being sown in this land. And government is failing in checking these things”.
“The Minorities Commission was disbanded in 2015. I demand that it should be re-constituted so that problems and concerns relating to minorities can be addressed,” he said.

In its FIR lodged on February 16, the Rajasthan Police named five accused — Anil, Shrikant, Rinku Saini, Lokesh Singla and Monu Manesar — on the basis of the complaint lodged by the victims’ family. Later, four more suspects’ names were added to the FIR registered at Gopalgarh police station in Bharatpur.
