Federal agents conducted a search warrant on a property owned by Dimitri Simes, an expert in Russian affairs with close ties to Donald Trump, the Rappahannock News reports.
Simes was among those who figured prominently in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe of potential Russian efforts to interfere in the 2016 election.
He was out of the country at the time of the raid but said he was “puzzled and concerned” by the action.
