The articles state that Kundra is not the target, co-workers and the D.C. Chief Security Officer was arrested, with potential bribery being the point of the FBI raid.  One more chapter in the nomination game, but I’m sure he paid his taxes, what next, and there will be more as transparency begins to unfold all around us.  BD 

The FBI has raided the former offices of Washington, D.C.'s chief technology officer Vivek Kundra.

The U.S. Attorney's Office confirmed that the FBI was searching the offices where Kundra and nearly 300 other employees worked. Two individuals were arrested in connection with a bribery probe investigation, District of Columbia Mayor's Office spokeswoman Mafara Hobson told InformationWeek.

FBI Investigates Former Office Of Obama's Pick For CIO -- Federal ID – InformationWeek

Even though the Washington, D.C. mayor's office and federal authorities say federal CIO Vivek Kundra isn't a target of an FBI raid of Kundra's former offices at the D.C. IT department this morning, this is one distraction I'd bet he didn’t want to have to deal with.

In this case, a spokesman at the offices of D.C. mayor Adrian Fenty confirms that the FBI raided the Washington, D.C., Office of the Chief Technology Officer -- Kundra's last job -- and arrested D.C.'s chief security officer, Yusuf Acar. Reports say it was a bribery sting. Though sources say Kundra is not a target of the ongoing investigation that ensnared Acar, Acar is likely a direct report of Kundra, and commenters on other sites are already saying Kundra should have known what was going on in his offices or is somehow responsible by association.
