Nur is a naturalized United States citizen who has ties to Somalia and may currently be living there.
Fahad Mohamed Nur is wanted for his alleged participation in a fraud scheme that exploited the Federal Child Nutrition Program during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Nur was the owner of a vendor and purported food supplier who received more than $5 million in fraudulent Federal Child Nutrition Program funds.
He allegedly submitted fictitious invoices for food that was never supplied and obtained and retained program funds through these invoices.
A federal arrest warrant was issued for Nur on September 13, 2022, in the United States District Court, District of Minnesota, Minneapolis Minnesota, after he was charged with Wire Fraud, Conspiracy to Commit Money Laundering, and Money Laundering.
