A Nevada woman is being held after police say she stabbed a man in retaliation for the death of former Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps Quds Force commander Qasem Soleimani.

Soleimani was killed on Jan. 3, 2020, by a U.S. drone strike. Former President Donald Trump approved the strike that led to Soleimani’s death.

Nika Nikoubin, 21, has been charged with attempted murder, two counts of battery and burglary of a business, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

Henderson police responded to a call on March 5 from a man who had been stabbed.

Police said the man, who was not named, had met a woman on a dating app, and they agreed to meet at Sunset Station.

They rented a room there and began engaging in sexual activity, according to KLAS-TV.

Nikoubin blindfolded the man, police said, and later turned off the lights. She then allegedly took a knife from her purse.

At some point after that, the victim “felt a pain on the side of his neck,” according to police

Nikoubin said she only wanted to hurt the man and not kill him, the Review-Journal wrote, citing the arrest report.

Nikoubin acted “for revenge against U.S. troops for the killing of Qasem Solemani in 2020,” police wrote, KLAS-TV reported.

“She advised that there are injustices, in particular the killing of Qasem Soleimani in Iran,” homeland security detectives wrote, according to the Review-Journal. “Nikoubin stated she wanted revenge.”

According to KLAS-TV, police said Nikoubin told them she had been listening to a song called “Grave Digger,” which “gave her the motivation… to carry out her revenge.”

The victim was able to free himself and leave the room to call 911, police said.

Nikoubin also left and allegedly told a hotel employee she had stabbed a man, according to police.

The condition of the man was not known.

Nikoubin has a preliminary hearing scheduled for March 24. Bail for Nikoubin was set at $60,000.
