Salahis Washington DC, May 21 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Michaele and Tareq Salahi were stopped in their limousine when they were en route to the White House for President Barack Obama’s second state dinner. Michaele and Tareq Salahi had somehow managed to attend the first state dinner of president Barack Obama. Even though they had no invitation and were not on the guest list of the first dinner. However they were not so lucky this time around and their attempt was thwarted by the Secret Service who stopped their limousine near the White House.

Sources inside the limousine said the group in the limousine never provoked an incident with the Secret Service. However the driver of the limo was ticketed for jumping right light and entering restricted area. The source said the incident was not filmed.

However White House officials say they have no information on the attempt by the Sahahis. The Sahalis shot themselves into the media fame when they managed to enter the first state dinner of President Barack Obama last November. The US President had given the first state dinner in honor of the visiting Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. The incident caused major embarrassment to the Secret Service and they have subsequently tightened the security procedures around the White House.
