FBI Thwarts Iranian Plot; Justice Department Charges Three in Assassination Attempt on President-elect Trump
Nov 8, 2024, 05:14 PM
The Justice Department has unsealed criminal charges against Farhad Shakeri, 51, of Iran, in connection with a thwarted Iranian plot to assassinate President-elect Donald Trump before this week's presidential election. The FBI intercepted the scheme, which was linked to Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps and also targeted several Iranian dissidents. A criminal complaint filed in federal court in Manhattan alleges that an unnamed IRGC official instructed a contact in September to devise a murder-for-hire plan to kill Trump while he campaigned for a second term in office. The plot involved stalking the former President-elect. Law enforcement sources confirmed that the FBI foiled the assassination attempt, ensuring the safety of Trump and other potential victims.
