The Department of Justice charged an Iranian man with plotting to murder former Trump National Security Advisor John Bolton. Shahram Poursafi, a member of Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guard’s Quds Force, offered $300,000 to a U.S. individual to kill Bolton in the D.C.
The Biden administration is offering a reward of up to $20 million for information on a member of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps who is charged with plotting to kill Donald Trump’s former national security adviser John Bolton. U.S. authorities say Shahram Poursafi allegedly worked to arrange a murder-for-hire scheme targeting Bolton between 2021 and 2022, seeking to hire criminals in the U.S. to kill Bolton in Washington, D.C., or Maryland in exchange for $300,000.
authorities in January charged an Iranian national and two Canadians, including a member of the Hells Angels motorcycle gang, for allegedly plotting to assassinate an Iranian defector living in Maryland. The State Department’s Rewards for Justice program said it is ready to pay up to $20 million for information leading to the arrest or conviction of Poursafi. Poursafi was charged in August 2022 for his role in the alleged plot against Bolton. He remains at large abroad.
