Prominent Democrat Fundraiser for Obama, Clinton Sentenced to 12 Years in Prison for Foreign Money Campaign Schemes
A California businessman and major Democratic bundler has been sentenced to 12 years in prison for a “mercenary” political influence scheme.
Imaad Zuberi, who raised large sums for former President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, was sentenced for schemes to funnel foreign money into American political campaigns, in which he would then take millions of dollars for himself.
U.S. Assistant Attorney Daniel J. O’Brien said Zuberi was “purely a mercenary, funneling money to whomever he believed would do his bidding.”
Zuberi contributed more than $950,000 in unlawful donations to the political committees of Obama, Clinton, McCain, and others. His most recent attempt was to work his way into the Biden circle.
