mohamed bahi eric adams sentence.

A former aide to New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been sentenced to three years’ probation, including a year of home confinement, for soliciting illegal campaign contributions for Adams’ first campaign. Mohamed Bahi embraced supporters after learning Tuesday that he would be spared prison. Bahi served as City Hall’s chief liaison to the Muslim community. He originally was charged as part of a sweeping corruption investigation into Adams. Bahi admitted that he helped solicit illegal donations from employees of a Brooklyn construction company during a December 2020 fundraiser. The Trump administration ultimately dropped the probe into the Democratic mayor.
