跟进:奥马尔案调查扩大,联邦调查人员传唤其姐姐等多名亲属

华盛顿——这是本站10月12日报道的跟进:联邦特工当天搜查明尼苏达州联邦众议员伊尔汗·奥马尔在华盛顿的住处,司法部证实执行了司法授权搜查令(前篇:联邦特工今晨搜查众议员奥马尔华盛顿住处,https://groupstarmedia.com/article/d20261012-omar1.html )。10月13日,调查出现新进展:据《纽约时报》报道、福克斯新闻跟进确认,联邦调查人员已向奥马尔的姐姐萨赫拉·努尔(Sahra Noor)发出传票,并至少传唤了其家庭圈内的另一名人士;福克斯新闻称,传票共发给了奥马尔的多名家庭成员。
据《纽约时报》报道,调查人员正在审查奥马尔家庭的移民历史,核查移民文书中可能存在的欺诈与虚假陈述,包括其已故父亲努尔·奥马尔·穆罕默德在成为美国公民之前在移民表格上是否作了虚假陈述或遗漏信息。福克斯新闻援引两名熟悉调查的消息人士称,10月12日国土安全调查局(HSI)对其华盛顿住处的搜查,是这项围绕其移民文书的刑事调查的一部分;司法部已证实搜查系依据司法授权令执行、属于正在进行的联邦刑事调查。需要说明的是,大陪审团传票是取证手段,本身并不意味着受传唤人涉嫌不法;据《纽约时报》报道,此前联邦层面对奥马尔移民历史的审查从未导致任何指控。
奥马尔方面已作出回应。她一贯否认在移民事务上有任何不法行为,并指责特朗普政府动用联邦执法针对她。她10月12日在社交平台X发文称,自己安好,此举是企图打击政治对手、把联邦执法武器化,并表示自己不会被噤声。
另据福克斯新闻报道,美国哥伦比亚特区联邦检察官珍妮·皮罗(Jeanine Pirro)10月13日在该台节目中披露,其办公室还在单独审查奥马尔的财务披露:披露文件显示,与其丈夫蒂姆·迈内特(Tim Mynett)关联的两家企业——加州一家酒庄与华盛顿一家风投公司——的申报价值合计曾从2023年的约1.5万至5.1万美元升至2024年的600万至3000万美元区间;奥马尔今年4月已修订申报,称原申报未妥善计入企业负债。福克斯新闻同时指出,国会行为办公室今年9月曾以5比1表决建议众议院道德委员会驳回与这些财务披露相关的不当行为指控,认定没有充分理由相信其申报违反法律或众议院规则;该审查与皮罗所述的联邦调查是两回事,财务审查与10月12日的搜查是否相关目前尚不清楚。此外,据《纽约邮报》报道,奥马尔的国会工作人员曾于2019年5月要求明尼苏达立法参考图书馆将其公开传记中的出生年份由1981年更正为1982年;该报道与福克斯新闻均指出,这一出入本身并不证明移民文书造假,也没有任何报道证实出生年份问题引发了本次搜查。

Follow-Up: Omar Probe Widens as Federal Investigators Subpoena Her Sister and Other Relatives
WASHINGTON — This is a follow-up to GSM's October 12 report, in which federal agents searched the Washington, D.C., home of Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota under a judicially authorized warrant confirmed by the Justice Department (previous report: https://groupstarmedia.com/article/d20261012-omar1.html ). On October 13 the investigation produced a new development: federal investigators have subpoenaed Omar's sister, Sahra Noor, and at least one other person in her family circle, The New York Times reported, in an examination of possible fraud and false statements in immigration paperwork. Fox News reported it had also learned that subpoenas were sent to multiple members of Omar's family.
According to the Times, investigators are examining the immigration history of Omar's family, including whether her late father, Nur Omar Mohamed, lied or omitted information on immigration forms before becoming a U.S. citizen. Two sources familiar with the probe told Fox News that the October 12 search of Omar's Washington home by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agents was part of an ongoing criminal investigation involving her immigration paperwork; the Justice Department has confirmed the search was executed under a judicially authorized warrant as part of an ongoing federal criminal investigation. Grand jury subpoenas are evidence-gathering tools and do not, by themselves, mean the recipients are suspected of wrongdoing; the Times reported that previous federal inquiries into Omar's immigration history have not resulted in charges.
Omar has responded publicly. She has repeatedly denied immigration wrongdoing and accused the Trump administration of using federal law enforcement against her. In a post on X on October 12, she said she was fine, called the search an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement, and said she would not be silenced.
Separately, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro said on Fox News on October 13 that her office is examining Omar's financial disclosures, Fox News reported. The filings had shown the combined reported value of two businesses tied to her husband, Tim Mynett — a California winery and a Washington-based venture capital firm — rising from roughly $15,000–$51,000 in 2023 to between $6 million and $30 million in 2024; Omar amended the filings in April, with her office saying the originals had not properly accounted for business liabilities. Fox News also noted that in September the Office of Congressional Conduct voted 5-1 to recommend that the House Ethics Committee dismiss misconduct allegations related to those disclosures — a review separate from the federal investigation Pirro described — and that it remains unclear whether the financial inquiry is connected to the October 12 search. In addition, the New York Post reported that Omar's congressional staff asked the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library in May 2019 to change her listed birth year from 1981 to 1982; both the Post and Fox News noted that the discrepancy does not establish falsified immigration records, and neither report established that the biography change prompted the search.
