D.C. lobbyist who worked for Sudan indicted
Robert J. Cabelly has been accused of violating U.S. sanctions against Sudan by signing the terrorism-sponsoring government up as a lobbying client, according to an indictment filed Tuesday. The 61-year-old D.C. resident allegedly helped Sudan broker deals with oil companies as he hid his relationship from U.S. authorities, the indictment said. The State Department has listed Sudan on the State Department’s Sponsors of Terrorism list and it is illegal to work with the Sudanese government without prior approval from U.S. officials.
