The U.S. Attorney's office in Connecticut has subpoenaed the former chairman of the Mohegan Tribe in connection with the $1 billion expansion of the tribe's casino, according to news reports.

A company owned by Roland Harris, who still sits on the tribal council, was paid $900,000 in consulting fees as part of the expansion project. He was chairman at the time the company was paid.

Harris' attorney confirmed he has been subpoenaed by the U.S. Attorney's office. The tribe itself is not part of the probe, chairman Mark Brown said.
