Bijan Kian’s legal team subpoenaed the records as he prepares for a July trial
A federal judge has granted Gen. Michael Flynn’s former business partner access to records Flynn’s attorneys prepared as they engaged with Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team in negotiations that led to Flynn’s guilty plea to a felony false statement charge over a year ago.
Kian’s legal team subpoenaed the records as he prepares for a July trial in Alexandria, Virginia, on an indictment charging him with conspiring with the former national security adviser and a Turkish national, Karim Alptekin, to act as unregistered agents for Turkey.
