An Iraqi national present in the United States as an asylum seeker planned to assassinate former President George W. Bush, according to Court documents unsealed in the Southern District of Ohio this week.
Court documents obtained by Forbes revealed a plot organized over WhatsApp, in which an alleged member of an ISIS unit called “Al-Raed” outlined an international operation to kill Bush.
The alleged plotter corresponded with a team of Iraqis — one of whom he identified as the “secretary of an ISIS financial minister” — on how to acquire Guns and vehicles for a sophisticated assassination attempt on Bush inside his own home.
The Court documents, cited by Forbes, pertain to a search warrant, rather than a criminal complaint.
