Afghan refugee charged with plotting US Election Day massacre worked for CIA: report

An Afghan national accused of plotting an ISIS-inspired Election Day terror attack on US democracy worked for the CIA in Afghanistan, according to a new report.

Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, 27, who was nabbed in Oklahoma on Monday over the alleged terror plot, was employed as a security guard for the agency but was not a CIA informant, NBC News reported, citing multiple sources.

It wasn’t immediately clear when or how long Tawhedi worked security before he came to the US in 2021 — just weeks after the Taliban regained control of Afghanistan and the last US troops departed from the war-torn nation.

It also wasn’t known if there were signs Tawhedi had ties to radical Islam before he entered the US, the sources told NBC.
