Ilhan Omar Addresses Allegations Amid DOJ Immigration Fraud Investigation
US Congresswoman Ilhan Omar faces renewed scrutiny after the Department of Justice used her first married name, Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, in a court filing related to an immigration fraud investigation. The DOJ declined to unseal the search warrant from an October raid on her Washington, D.C. residence. Omar denies longstanding allegations that she married her brother to obtain citizenship, calling them "insane" in her first interview since the raid. She also addressed her finances and disputed reports of DNA evidence collection.
