Hidden camera video outlines alleged Iran-linked plot to kill Trump
A newly released undercover video shown in a Brooklyn courtroom captures an alleged Iran-linked operative describing a 2024 plot to assassinate Donald Trump.
The operative who prosecutors say tried to hire two men to kill Trump for $5,000 upfront demonstrated the plan by placing a vape pen on a napkin to signify his “target,” the hidden camera video released by the New York Post shows.
“This is the target. How will it die?” Asif Merchant said in the meeting.
Merchant, 47, a Pakistani national who entered the United States in April 2024, is accused of attempting to recruit individuals he believed were hired killers.
Prosecutors said he offered cash payments and discussed staging a protest near a campaign rally to create confusion and allow the attackers to escape.
