The family of Malcolm X, a prominent civil rights leader assassinated in 1965, has filed a $100 million federal lawsuit against the FBI, CIA, NYPD, and DOJ. The lawsuit alleges that these agencies were aware of the plot to kill Malcolm X and failed to prevent it. The family claims that the agencies played key roles in the assassination and subsequently covered up their involvement for decades. The suit seeks justice and transparency for Malcolm X's family. The announcement was made during a press conference, and the family was represented by attorney Ben Crump. Malcolm X's daughters, along with witnesses Mustafa Hassan and Ramakhrisna Khaleed Sayyed, have come forward to support the case.
