Nikki Haley alleges Iran paid Pak businessman to plot her assassination in US

Former US ambassador to UN Nikki Haley alleged that Iran attempted to have her assassinated. She claimed that IRGC paid a Pakistani businessman to carry out the plot. “Just a few months ago, someone was arrested because he paid an informant to have me killed,” Haley said, referring to Pakistani national Asif Merchant, convicted by US federal jury in March.
