EXCLUSIVE: Mueller probe witness who met Jared Kushner and was 'best friends' with Steve Bannon flees the country after being revealed as a pedophile
Robert Mueller co-operating witness George Nader has fled the United States for the United Arab Emirates, DailyMail.com reveals
Nader, a convicted pedophile, was allegedly a paid adviser for the UAE's de facto ruler Mohammed bin Zayef and had close ties to the Trump administration
He has been interviewed twice by special counsel Robert Mueller as part of his probe into Russian meddling and possible collusion with the Trump campaign
The Lebanese-born adviser was first stopped when he flew into Washington in January on his way to visit Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort
Nader has been cooperating with investigators following the stop and his lawyer said he 'truthfully answered questions'
Investigators are interested in a 2016 Trump Tower meeting between bin Zayef, Jared Kushner and Steve Bannon which Nader was at and may have brokered
They also want to about a meeting he was at in the Seychelles, attended by Blackwater founder Erik Prince and UAE's de-facto ruler Mohammed bin Zayed

(19,969 posts)But a source close to Zayed has said that Nader has now fled to the UAE after the Emirati prince pulled strings with US officials to secure his freedom to move.
A second source close to the Emirati royal family said Zayed is keen to know what Mueller asked his top adviser.
'George is back in the UAE, though I thought he'd be too scared to go there,' said the source. 'The fact that he's gone back there means he's obviously not worried. But MBZ is going to want to see him and know what he told the special counsel.'
That's outrageous.

(12,344 posts)I don't think they can make you give up your passport without an indoctment. Also Mueller can't make a deal on pedophilia, so no incentive for him to stay.

(12,344 posts)Maybe they think if they keep committing crimes, Mueller will be too busy investigating to indict them?

(19,969 posts)If this is Nader absconding, this will be a massive story tomorrow.
