Here are the relevant quotes from the article.

The suspect could have been in a position to influence Bush administration policy toward Iran and Iraq, the senior official said.

Multiple sources have told CNN that the investigation is well along, and one government official described the evidence against the suspect as a "slam dunk case" and said "there has been no decision to prosecute the individual."
