Exclusive,
Dec 12 – Two defendants were
presented on murder for hire
charges on November 7 in the
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrates Court and, as
exclusively at that time reported
by Inner City Press, were
detained.
At midday
on November 8, the SDNY US
Attorney's Office announced
the detention of the two, plus
another man in connection with
a plot to assassinate then
candidate Donald J. Trump.
The
complaint at Paragraph
28c recounts that "SHAKERI and
CC-1 , along with others, were
arrested on or about January
22, 2019, by the SLPRB in
Colombo, Sri Lanka, in
connection with a seizure of
approximately 92 kilograms of
heroin."
As
exclusively noted, first on X,
by Inner City Press, this is
connected to a case in EDNY in
Brooklyn, US v. Shawn
Marshall. Not along were the
same two SDNY prosecutors
involved in this EDNY case -
the Marshall complaint
Marshall traveled to Sri Lanka
that time frame. It references
91 kilos of heroin, versus 92.
And the EDNY Magistrate
redacted the name of
"Individual 1," a citizen of
Afghanistan. Complaint

and now on DocumentCloud here
So the two
cases are connected. It seems
Marshall is CC-1 in the
Shakeri complaint, and Shakeri
is "Individual-1" in the
Marshall complaint - and one
surmises they are trying to
flip Marshall, by charging him
"only" with drugs and guns, in
the District next door to
which the SDNY prosecutors
traveled.
On December 5 the
SDNY case was indicted and
wheeled out to Judge Lewis J.
Liman.
On December 12
Judge Liman held a conference.
Inner City Press was there,
thread:
Judge Liman : How
do you plead? Defendants: Not
guilty. Not guilty.
AUSA: We have
Apple, Google accounts. We did
premises searches, found
gun... These two targeted a
prominent Iranian dissident.
There may be CIPA litigation.
The 3rd defendant remains at
large.
Trial estimated
at 2 weeks. Next conference
March 5, 2023
SDNY: US v.
Shakeri, et al., 24-cr-670
(Liman)
