A federal judge granted bail Tuesday to the two men accused of pretending to be federal agents who allegedly bought off Secret Service officers, CNBC reported.
Arian Taherzadeh, 40, and Haider Ali, 36, were arrested in Washington, D.C., on April 6 and have been in custody ever since, according to court documents obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. The two allegedly posed as Homeland Security agents since as early as February 2020, buying lavish gifts for members of the Secret Service, including one that was assigned to First Lady Jill Biden’s security detail, according to an affidavit.
