Pakistani national with ties to Iran charged in connection to a foiled assassination plot potentially targeting Trump

The Justice Department has charged a Pakistani man with alleged ties to the Iranian government for attempting to carry out political assassinations, leading the US government to increase security for former President Donald Trump and other officials, according to an indictment unsealed on Tuesday, as reported by Israel National News.

FBI investigators believe Trump and other current and former US officials were the targets of the plot, as reported by CNN.

Asif Merchant, 46, is accused of traveling to New York City and working with a hitman to execute the assassinations in late August or early September, as per charges filed by federal prosecutors in Brooklyn, New York.
