Former Mississauga-Streetsville MP Wajid Ali Khan has been charged by the RCMP in a $1.1 million international investment fraud.

Khan, 71, was charged along with Nadeem Imtiaz Ahmed, 48, both of Mississauga, and both accused of borrowing more than $1.1 million from “personal contacts” in Canada, according to an RCMP news release announcing the charges. The lenders were told the money would be used to buy investment properties for them in Pakistan.

Khan faces seven charges – three counts of fraud, three counts of false pretense and one count of uttering a forged document. Ahmed faces five similar charges.

The RCMP’s National Division RCMP Sensitive and International Investigative Section received complaints in January 2015 and began an investigation. The charges were just recently laid. The Sensitive and International Investigative Section focuses on “criminal activity that poses a threat to Canada’s government institutions, public officials, the integrity of the Crown, or that imperils Canada’s political, economic and social integrity,” according to the RCMP.

Flossy probably voted for him. Oh wait, he probably would have voted for him if he was old enough.
