Mohamed Bahi, a former top official in Eric Adams' administration, has been charged with witness tampering and destruction of evidence concerning illegal donations to Adams' campaign.
The unsealed complaint indicates Bahi instructed a businessman to provide false statements to federal investigators regarding allegedly arranged straw donations for Adams' 2021 mayoral run.
Prosecutors assert that Bahi deleted a messaging app before federal agents executed a search warrant at his residence, raising further concerns about potential evidence tampering.
This development follows a wave of departures from City Hall post-indictment, highlighting a troubling trend of accountability issues within Adams' administration.
