Congressman Henry Cuellar is expected to be indicted by the Department of Justice on Friday afternoon, according to multiple reports.
The Texas Democrat‘s home was raided by the FBI in January 2022 as part of an investigation into his ties to Azerbaijani businessmen.
Cuellar insisted he was innocent in response to the news – and suggested his wife would be caught up in the indictment.
‘I want to be clear that both my wife and I are innocent of these allegations.’
‘The actions I took in Congress were consistent with the actions of many of my colleagues and in the interest of the American people,’ he went on.
The embattled congressman said he plans to continue his campaign for reelection despite the indictment.
