“[Manafort] has a close connection to Pakistan. He was involved in the Karachi Affair,
a major scandal in France concerning kickbacks and submarines destined for the
Pakistani navy. Manafort had also lobbied for an ISI front organization called the Kashmiri
American Council. The FBI’s counter-terrorism and counter-intelligence departments handled
that investigation in 2011, shortly after the Abbottabad raid on Osama bin Laden’s
compound. Ghulam Nabi Fai, a Jamaat operative, was jailed for working for Pakistan’s intelligence services.”
