The following is claimed to be a leaked document of the US embassy in Dhaka (available in the internet on Google search) of 3.8.1008. In the document, it was noted that: 'This case is currently being pursued by DOJ Asset Forfeiture (POC: Deputy Chief Linda Samuels) and by the FBI (POC: Debra Laprevotte). It is the same Debra LaPrevotte who gave witness today.
