明尼阿波利斯讯——联邦官员表示，美国有史以来最大规模疫情时期诈骗案的一名 alleged 头目在海外被捕，此前已逃亡四年多。
43岁的阿卜迪凯尔姆·艾德莱于本周早些时候在索马里摩加迪沙的一次日间突袭行动中被捕，此次行动由美国联邦调查局和索马里情报机构联合协调。2022年9月，他因涉及涉案金额高达2.5亿美元的“供养我们的未来”大规模诈骗调查而被起诉。
“这是一条大鱼，”明尼苏达州联邦检察官丹尼尔·罗森对哥伦比亚广播公司新闻表示，“艾德莱是核心头目之一，他负责行贿并拉拢企业，窃取美国纳税人的钱财。”
罗森称，艾德莱是该诈骗案已定罪主谋艾米·博克的“二号人物”，博克刚刚被判处40多年监禁。

调查人员指控，艾德莱指示餐厅和餐饮企业虚报提交给明尼苏达州教育部的报销收据后，个人收受了500万美元的贿赂和回扣。
“这表明美国执法部门的触角遍布全球，”明尼阿波利斯联邦调查局分局局长克里斯托弗·多森说道，“索马里并非你想象中的避风港。”
截至目前，检方已在“供养我们的未来”案中起诉了79人，其中大多数为索马里裔。其中66人已被定罪或认罪。
明尼苏达州还有数十人因一系列涉嫌诈骗纳税人资助的社会服务项目被起诉，这些项目涉及儿童保育、住房和行为健康服务。
罗森此前曾对哥伦比亚广播公司新闻表示，明尼苏达州的诈骗总额可能高达10亿美元。
“‘供养我们的未来’一案或许即将落幕，但我们要确保保护美国纳税人的工作才刚刚开始，”罗森说道。
Suspect in Minnesota fraud case arrested in Somalia after 4 years on the run, officials say

MINNEAPOLIS — An alleged leader of the largest pandemic-era fraud scheme in the country was arrested overseas after being on the run for more than four years, according to federal officials.
Abdikerm Eidleh, 43, was arrested in Mogadishu, Somalia, earlier this week in a daytime raid coordinated by both the FBI and Somali intelligence agencies. He was indicted in September 2022 as part of the sweeping $250 million Feeding Our Future fraud investigation.
“This is a big fish,” Daniel Rosen, U.S. Attorney for Minnesota, told CBS News. “Eidleh was a key leader and was responsible for bribing and recruiting business to steal from the American taxpayer.”
Rosen said Eidleh was “second in command” to Aimee Bock, the convicted ringleader of the scheme, who was just sentenced to more than 40 years in prison.

Investigators allege Eidleh personally collected $5 million in bribes and kickbacks after instructing restaurants and catering businesses to inflate receipts submitted to the Minnesota Department of Education for reimbursement.
“This shows the global reach and outstretched arm of American law enforcement,” said Christopher Dotson, FBI Special Agent in Charge at FBI Minneapolis. “Somalia is not the safe haven you may think it is.”
So far prosecutors have charged 79 people, most of Somali descent, in the Feeding Our Future case. Of those, 66 have been convicted or pleading guilty.
Dozens of others have also been charged in Minnesota in a range of alleged schemes to defraud taxpayer-funded social service programs, including childcare, housing and behavioral health.
Rosen previously told CBS News the total amount of fraud in Minnesota could top $1 billion.
“The chapter for Feeding Our Future might be closing, but we’re still in the beginning of making sure we protect the American taxpayer,” Rosen said
