Mohamed Muse Noor was arrested after booking a flight to Istanbul, Turkey, and is accused of taking nearly $500,000 from the Federal Child Nutritional Program and sending most of it to his cousin, who is no longer in the United States, according to court documents.
He is accused of registering his company, Xogmaal Media Group, as a phony Federal Child Nutrition Program meal site under the sponsorship of Feeding Our Future.
Xogmaal Media is described as a “Minneapolis-based Somali marketing, advertising, and communications firm.” It also runs a news site focused on the Somali community.
An affidavit filed in U.S. District Court details internal Feeding Our Future emails that document Xogmaal Media Group moving to “step 2 of the application” before an employee raised concerns about sponsoring the company.
