Chicago On Tuesday, senior officials of the Ministry of Justice denied rumors that James Kumi will be arrested and presented to the media, and made their observations on the case of the former FBI director before the court one day before his scheduled.
In an interview at the FBI in the Chicago Field Bureau, the FBI reported that media reports on the possibility of Komei’s ready -made camera arrest, which is sometimes known as the criminal march, was just a distraction.
“We are conducting arrests, and the Federal Investigation Office is conducting arrests in every court in this country every day of the year,” Blanche said, describing the rumors about Kumi’s circumstances as “gossip.”

“Mr. Kumi was directed to appear, and I expect that he will do so. But the noise issued by the MSNBC network and retired clients or unknown sources whose name on criminality rounds is just something,” said Blanche. “It is just noise.”
Reuters, MSNBC and other media outlets in recent days reported that the FBI official was expelled because he refused to participate in a fascinating arrest of Kumi and organized a march. Kumi was called to appear before a court in Virginia on charges of making a false statement in front of Congress, but it is not clear whether he was also to be arrested.

“The main media wants to keep attention from the ball and create a theater,” Patel said. “We are not related to the theater. We aim to provide our results in court. This is what you will see tomorrow. Start by revealing the details, and it will be imminent in the judicial process as every person in America, including Mr. Kumi, we want, and we want to have his day in court, and will start tomorrow.”
Fox News Digital channel contacted Kumi’s lawyer for comment.
