DELAWARE COUNTY, PA Two Delaware County brothers admitted in federal court to setting fire to their business in an attempt to reap the insurance benefits, authorities said.
Acting United States Attorney Jennifer Arbittier Williams said Imad Dawara, 40, of Swathmore, and Bahaa Dawara, 32, of Woodlyn, both entered pleas of guilty Thursday to charges of conspiracy to commit arson and conspiracy to defraud the United States.
The brothers admitted to planning and causing the arson of their business, RCL Management LLC, at 239-241 Chestnut St. in Philadelphia on Feb. 18, 2018, and to evading the assessment of their income tax liabilities from 2015-2017.
