...Justice Department's campaign-finance task force may soon confer immunity on ARIEF and SORAYA WIRIADINATAS, the Indonesian couple who were the largest individual donors to the D.N.C. in '96. The pair, who are closely tied to Lippo Group principals MOCHTAR and JAMES RIADY, say they gave $450,000 to the D.N.C. at the urging of JOHN HUANG (the money has since been returned).

The task force, meanwhile, is pressuring frequent donor Johnny Chung, by threatening an indictment...

...Friday the Democratic Party announced that it would return $450,000 it had received in 1995 from Arief and Soraya Wiriadinata, two Indonesians with ties to the Riady empire who lived briefly in Northern Virginia. Only 10 days before, Democratic National Committee chairman Don Fowler had said the donation was legal and had been "thoroughly reviewed."

The D.N.C. said it would return the money--just as soon...

Khashoggi first met Lamia in Milan when she was a 17-year-old named Laura Biancolini. When she married Khashoggi in 1978, she changed her name and converted to the Muslim faith (as had Soraya). Buxom and statuesque with blue, almond-shaped eyes, she is self-possessed and cool. She dresses according to the Joan Collins Dynasty handbook, complete with diamonds and decolletage. With her, as with her husband, more is definitely more. Her idea of casual is to wear a one-inch ruby-and-diamond ring with matching ruby earrings. Her 40- carat diamond wedding ring covers the lower...
