I think Kundra will quietly step down for 'personal reasons' . I don't see how you can have someone like that working for you and not know something is going on.

A criminal complaint against 40-year-old Yusuf Acar accuses him of one count each of conspiracy to commit bribery, money laundering, wire fraud, and conflict of interest.

Those are some serious charges.

Was this guy reporting directly to Kundra? Whoever his superior is should be fired...unless this happened prior to the office being setup.

This is what happens when a Illinois politician is president.

what an idiotic comment!
You didn`t even read the article....
Kundra (the appointee) is not the target of the investigation.
Yucar Acar is.

Obama suspends his new CTO:

WASHINGTON (AP) - An aide to President Barack Obama is on leave from his White House job after the FBI raided his old District of Columbia government office Thursday, arresting a city employee and a technology consultant on corruption charges, a White House official said.

The charges were lodged against the two men at a federal court hearing as the FBI finished searching the city's technology office, which was led until recently by Obama's new computer chief, Vivek Kundra.

Kundra is on leave from his White House job until further details of the case become known, according to a White House official speaking on condition of anonymity because the official did not want to publicly discuss personnel matters.

At the court hearing, Yusuf Acar, the acting chief security officer in the city's technology office, was ordered held without bond pending a hearing Tuesday. Prosecutors said $70,000 in cash was found during a search of Acar's Washington home and that he posed a serious flight risk.

so....Kundra had nothing to do with this.....
This all took place under GWB`s watch...not Obama`s....
get a life dude!!
