FBI Confiscates Chicago City Council IG's Computers

Days before the Chicago City Council's internal watchdog departed his post Monday, the FBI came to his office and picked up his computers and the bulk of his files, Legislative Inspector General Faisal Khan said.

The action came as the result of a subpoena asking Khan to appear before a grand jury last Thursday and bring "all documents ... concerning any investigation referred to the Federal Bureau of Investigation." Khan said that he instead agreed with the FBI on a date and time to pick up the records.

Khan would not specify the nature of the FBI's work but did say that during his time in office he had referred matters that "are criminal in nature" to outside agencies, including the FBI, the Illinois attorney general, the U.S. attorney's office and the IRS.

"I don't know if and when these cases will result in charges," Khan said. "I simply would like to see them resolved appropriately, and then the public can see what exactly the (office of legislative inspector general) worked on and what the results of those investigations are."
