In July 2021, Barrack was briefly jailed under an indictment alleging he worked as an unregistered foreign agent of the United Arab Emirates, obstructed justice and lied to the FBI.[17][18] The indictment was broadened in May 2022 to include alleging Barrack sought hundreds of millions of dollars in investments from the UAE while illegally lobbying the Trump administration on its behalf.
