Acar, 40, was taken into custody Thursday morning by FBI agents at his home in Northwest D.C.

AITC has also received contracts from the D.C. Department of Motor Vehicles. In 2008, Bansal received the Entrepreneur of the Year Award from the Association of Indians in America, according to AITC’s Web site.
