Ex-Adams Aide in Plea Talks Amid Federal Corruption Probe

Mohamed Bahi, former aide to NYC Mayor Eric Adams, is considering a plea deal in a case linked to alleged corruption and campaign finance violations.

Mohamed Bahi, previously Mayor Eric Adams' liaison to the Muslim community, is in discussions with federal prosecutors about a potential plea deal.
Bahi has been charged with witness tampering and destroying evidence in a corruption investigation involving Mayor Adams.
The investigation centers on accusations that Adams accepted illegal campaign contributions and bribes from foreign nationals, including Turkish officials.
Prosecutors are considering additional charges against Adams, who has pleaded not guilty to the current allegations of bribery and fraud.
Bahi's potential cooperation in the plea deal could impact the upcoming trial against Adams, scheduled for April.
