The defendant Nadim Ahmed had in the gallery his son and wife, looking unhappy. His charges were quickly read, and the complaint was still sealed. He was released on $2 million bond. He had been arrested at his home in Old Westbury, New York and presumably returned there.
The complaint describes a scheme to "develop a fleet of taxis in NYC" and get immigration status.
The case is US v. Ahmed, 23-mj-563 (Cave)
