Igor Fruman, an associate of Rudolph W. Giuliani who aided his political activities on behalf of former president Donald Trump, is expected to plead guilty this week in connection with his indictment on campaign finance fraud charges, according to court records made public Monday.

Fruman, who unlike his co-defendant Lev Parnas has remained out of the public spotlight since his arrest in 2019, is expected to appear in federal court on Wednesday for a change-of-plea proceeding, according to the docket notation. Fruman and Parnas — who also faces separate charges he stole from investors in a bogus start-up company — previously pleaded not guilty on all counts.
