A Houston man already facing federal charges in Virginia for his role in an alleged life insurance scam has been indicted by a federal grand jury in Texas.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Dallas said Wednesday that Adley Husni Abdulwahab was indicted on five counts of securities fraud and one count of conspiracy in connection with an alleged $17 million investment scam.
Two co-defendants in the case have pleaded guilty to a single count of securities fraud and face up to five years in prison.
Abdulwahab remains in custody in the Eastern District of Virginia for his alleged role in an alleged $100 million life insurance scam and couldn’t be reached for comment. Federal court records do not list an attorney for Abdulwahab in the Texas matter.
