US congressman to be probed by ethics committee over Ed Ahmad `loan’

Ed Ahmad

A bipartisan ethics committee of the US Congress is to probe Queens, New York Representative, Gregory Meeks over a `loan’ he received from Guyanese businessman, Edul Ahmad.

Meeks is already under investigation by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) over the loan and Ahmad himself was arrested in New York two weeks ago by the FBI over a mortgage fraud probe.
