The 27-year-old girlfriend of a married Republican congressman opened up to the Daily Mail about a domestic dispute 911 call that led cops to the lawmaker’s home.
Headlines broke in February that Florida Republican Rep. Cory Mills was under investigation for a domestic assault after the police were called to his residence in Washington, D.C.
Sarah Raviani, a co-founder of Iranians for Trump, phoned the police after ‘(Her significant other for over a year) grabbed her, shoved her, and pushed her out of the door’ of his apartment, a copy of the initial incident report obtained by NBC claims.
Raviani showed ‘bruises on her arm which appeared fresh’, the report stated, in addition to claiming that Mills instructed her to lie to authorities about what took place.
‘Officers [heard] Subject 1 [now identified by MPD as Mills] instruct her to lie about the origin of her bruises,’ it stated.
Police also allegedly told Mills he would be placed under arrest, but after Raviani changed her story, no arrest took place and no charges have been filed.
A new version of the police report was created within days, saying the incident was a family disturbance and there was no cause for arrest, according to the report. Both Mills and Raviani deny any wrongdoing.
Breaking her silence to set the record straight, Raviani told the Daily Mail in a statement: ‘Regarding the police call, I’ve confirmed multiple times and I’ll confirm again, no assault took place.’
Sarah Raviani told Washington law enforcement she and Mills got into a domestic dispute at his residence earlier this year. No wrongdoing was done, both have said, and no charges have been filed. Mills is in the midst of a divorce from Al Saadi, he has said

The 27-year-old confirmed that she and Mills, who is married, are together: ‘We’re in a relationship,’ she said, adding ‘it’s been confirmed many times.’
The Daily Mail first contacted Raviani to speak about a report from The Blaze which sheds light on the congressman’s 2014 marriage to Rana Al Saadi, an American citizen originally from Iraq.
According to the report, Mills and Al Saadi were wed in an Islamic ceremony by a member of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood, Mohammad Al-Hanooti. The Islamic center they were married at was also briefly attended by some 9/11 hijackers.
Mills shares in the article that his relationship with Al Saad is in the process of ending. ‘We’ve been going through divorce proceedings for 2.5 years and have been separated for three years.’
The report also cast doubts on how genuine Mills’ Christian faith is, but Raviani told the Daily Mail it should not be up for debate.
‘I can confidently say that the claims made in the Blaze article are entirely untrue,’ she wrote.
The couple regularly pray together in private, she shared.

‘He has not only attended church with my family and me, but we also pray together privately— just the two of us— where there would be no reason to pretend or perform for others.’
‘Additionally, we pray together publicly before meals. Any assertion that he is a Muslim is false, and I can personally attest to his Christian faith,’ she told the Daily Mail.
In fact, the two even spent Easter together overseas while the congressman was visiting Turkey and Syria on an unofficial trip with Indiana Republican Rep. Marlin Stutzman.
The unofficial trip was organized by the Syrian American Alliance for Peace and Prosperity, Mills has said.

When pressed on the meeting the pro-Iranian activist shared: ‘I was with Cory, and they offered me to sit in the meeting before dinner.’
‘I’m an advocate for women’s rights in Iran and a free Iran.’
‘The purpose of the travel was because we wanted to spend Easter together,’ she shared.
