Abdallat, Ahmed Adil (Coutesy of El Paso County Sheriff's Office)
A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement employee has been arrested on charges that he stole government travel funds and misused his diplomatic passport.
According to a federal grand jury indictment, Ahmed Adil Abdallat, 63, has been charged with eight counts of misuse of a diplomatic passport and one count of conversion of public money.
Abdallat is a supervisory intelligence research specialist for ICE.
Federal prosecutors allege that in March 2007, Abdallat was given a diplomatic passport in order to perform various temporary duties at U.S. embassies in several foreign countries. However, since October 2007 Abdallat has used the passport for personal travel purposes to and from Amman, Jordan, prosecutors said Monday.
Prosecutors said that at least four of those trips were made after Abdallat was permanently assigned to duty in El Paso and no longer had to travel in any official capacity.
Abdallat also is accused of making multiple trips between El Paso and Washington, D.C., from Feb. 15, 2009 to Sept. 10, 2010, and received about $123,000 in travel fund reimbursements. Once officials reviewed his travel voucher documents, they discovered Abdallat allegedly made multiple fictitious charges for lodging, vehicle rental and parking.
Abdallat was arrested Thursday and remains in federal custody, prosecutors said. He is scheduled to appear at a detention hearing at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday before U.S. Magistrate Judge David Guaderrama.

An Islamic top Department of Homeland Security official steals and launders almost $2 million to Jordan–perhaps to Palestinian terrorists–and gets a mere slap on the wrist–a year in federal prison. That’s what happened yesterday to Ahmed Adil Abdallat.
Ahmed Adil Abdallat: Now We Know Why His Mugshot’s So Cheery
In May 2011, I told you about Ahmed Adil Abdallat, the top Homeland Security official, who apparently stole and laundered around $2 million in Homeland Security money tobank accounts in Jordan. Abdallat, a Muslim Jordanian–which means he’s a Palestinian, was a top intelligence analyst for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). He made at least 11 unauthorized trips to Jordan (using his diplomatic passport), where federal investigators linked him to bank accounts containing $1.2 million, in addition to nearly $600,000 in wire transfers to Jordan in fraudulently-obtained funds he got by submitting to and getting reimbursed by Homeland security for fake travel expenses. What is even more outrageous is that his direct boss, James M. Woosley (not to be confused with former CIA Director James M. Woolsey), the then-Director of Intelligence for ICE, was in on the scheme and was paid off by accepting his cut.
