A Seaford drug rehab center owner has been found guilty of attempting to defraud the American public by filing false tax returns.
Amir Mohamed, 58, of Milton, Delaware, the former owner of Addiction Medical Facility, LLC, a Seaford drug rehab center, pled guilty in federal court yesterday to a one count Information charging him with Making False Statements on a Tax Return.
According to court documents, Mohamed failed to declare on his federal tax returns all the income he received in calendar year 2021, resulting in underpaid taxes for that year.
Mohamed faces a maximum of 3 years in prison when sentenced on June 27, 2024. Judge Colm F. Connolly will determine any sentence after taking into account the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.
‘Amir Mohamed’s scheme to evade taxes for the purpose of lining his own pockets was a theft from the American public,’ said U.S. Attorney David C. Weiss. ‘Together with our law enforcement partners, we will continue to protect the interests of law-abiding taxpayers by pursuing those who shirk their lawful tax obligations.’
‘Anyone contemplating cheating on their taxes should know that IRS-Criminal Investigation Special Agents work tirelessly, year-round, to investigate tax and financial crimes,’ said IRS Criminal Investigation Special Agent in Charge Yury Kruty. ‘Our largest enforcement program is directed at the portion of American taxpayers who willfully and intentionally violate their known legal duty of filing and paying their taxes.’
IRS-Criminal Investigation investigated the case, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Eli H. Klein is prosecuting the case.
