- [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] A motion for detention shows two men impersonating federal agents, Haider Sher-Ali, 35, and Arian Taherzadeh, 40, had a slew of damning evidence in their apartments
- This included images showing several different passports and IDs as well as firearms
- 'They are not law enforcement agents, and they are not involved in sanctioned covert activities,' the motion for detention filed Friday claims. 'Neither Defendant is even employed by the United States government
Didja look and see who they were employed by? We'll wait.
- 'But their impersonation scheme was sufficiently realistic to convince other government employees, including law enforcement agents, of their false identities,' the memorandum added.
- At least two Secret Service agents assigned to Biden and Harris' protective detail were caught up in the scheme by two men posing as DHS agents
- One agent receiving free rent, sources say, was regularly stationed at VP Kamala Harris' residence at One Observatory Circle at the Naval Observatory
- Another who was often seen partying with the two men is on the presidential protective detail
- At least four Secret Service agents have been placed on administrative leave
- Taherzadeh and Ali were arrested Wednesday for impersonating federal agents with the Department of Homeland Security, their apartment were raided by the FBI, NCIS and USPIS
- The duo claimed to be involved in an investigation into the Jan. 6 Capitol attack
Ali, according to Taherzadeh, was the one able to gain access codes and a list of tenants in the Crossing DC apartment complex — owned by upscale real estate firm Tishman Speyer.
'With respect to Ali, Taherzadeh stated that Ali had obtained the electronic access codes and a list of all of the tenants in the apartment complex,' the memorandum notes. 'Taherzadeh further stated that Ali was the individual that funded most of their day-to-day operation but Taherzadeh did not know the source of the funds.'
Just after the interaction with a Postal Inspector in March, which eventually led to the duo's arrest, Taherzadeh said that he started deleting law enforcement material from his social media.
Images from the raid Wednesday of a unit on the 7th floor where Taherzadeh was residing allegedly for free showed agents recovered 'three current copies of Taherzadeh's Washington D.C. driver's license, passport, United States Special Police — Special Investigations Unit business cards, a USSP police badge, and several identification and credit cards.'
During an arraignment Thursday afternoon, details emerged that there could be connections between Ali and the Pak Intelligence Service.
Two of his passports were found during a raid of his unit on the 6th floor of Crossing DC.
'Ali's expired passport contained several visas authorizing foreign travel,' the Friday memorandum notes. 'For instance, this passport contained two visas authorizing travel from the Islamic Theocratic
Republicof Iran.'
'The Government has identified at least four entry/exit stamps from Mashhad International Airport in Mashhad, Razavi Khorasan, Iran.'
It goes on: 'In addition, the Ali's passport contained two thirty-day visas from Pakistain and one visa for travel to Egypt.'
Images of these visas and passports corroborate the claims made in the memorandum for detention of Taherzadeh and Ali.
Customs and Border Protection records show that Ali traveled through Doha, Qatar
