A Pakistani national with ties to Iran was charged with murder-for-hire as part of plot to assassinate a U.S. politician or government official, potentially in response to the Trump administration's 2020 killing of Iranian General Qasem Soleimani, according to a criminal complaint unsealed Tuesday.

Asif Raza Merchant, 46, arrived in the U.S. around April and contacted a person he believed could help him carry out the scheme, the Department of Justice alleged. However, that person told law enforcement about Merchant's plans and became a confidential source.

The charges, filed in a Brooklyn, New York federal courthouse in July, were revealed weeks after an attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump at a Butler, Pennsylvania political rally.

However, a law enforcement official said investigators so far haven't uncovered evidence linking Merchant to the Pennsylvania attack by 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks. Merchant or an attorney for him couldn't be immediately reached for comment.
