Businessman named in federal corruption probe accused of fraud in bankruptcy court

The owner of a clout-heavy fuel distribution firm embroiled in an ongoing federal corruption probe has been accused in bankruptcy court of lying under oath, hiding assets and secretly cutting tens of thousands of dollars in checks to himself and family members.

The Department of Justice attorney assigned to monitor the bankruptcy petition of Black Dog Chicago LLC said in a filing with the court last month that owner Amit Gauri has “engaged in self-dealing” and used his company’s assets “as his personal piggy bank” to fund a lavish lifestyle.

When questioned about his petition under oath last November, Gauri acknowledged that he’d met with Sandoval and former state Rep. Luis Arroyo, who also has been charged in federal court with corruption, to discuss issues related to

minority-owned business contracts.

That's the D party con, one of them anyway
