From The Washington Post:
A former business partner of Michael Flynn is being charged with acting as an agent of a foreign government and conspiracy for attempting to get Turkish cleric Fethullah Gulen extradited from the United States.
Bijan Kian made his first appearance in Alexandria federal court Monday morning. According to the indictment, Kian conspired with Turkish businessman Ekim Alptekin to illegally lobby U.S. government officials and influence public opinion in the U.S. against Gulen.
Turkish businessman Ekim Alptekin is accused of directing and funding Kian and Flynn’s work, and then lying in U.S. filings about his role. He is charged with the same crimes as Kian, as well as making false statements, but he remains in Turkey.

It is heartening to see some justice coming for those involved in this treasonous scheme to abduct a U.S. resident. It addresses the despotic fascism permeating just about everyone in Trump’s orbit.
Flynn deserves to go to jail for life for this, regardless of how helpful he is, or was, to the Mueller probe.
