Brother of Indicted Rudy Giuliani Associate Also Eyed in Campaign Finance Probe: Prosecutor

NEW YORK — The brother of an indicted associate of Rudy Giuliani is also under scrutiny in an ongoing campaign finance probe, a prosecutor said Friday.

During a bail hearing for Igor Fruman in federal court in Manhattan, Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicolas Roos told a judge that Fruman’s brother Steven had initially failed to disclose his interest in a holding company linked to the scheme when he was screened to be a backer of a $1 million bail bond.

Roos said of Steven Fruman: “It appears he could be involved in some of the conduct in the indictment.”
