Federal authorities deported an ISIS-inspired terrorist who planned a mass shooting attack on Election Day in 2024, the Justice Department announced Friday.
Afghan national Nazira Haji Zada, 47, plotted the attack alongside her son, Abdullah Haji Zada, and son-in-law, Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, who were previously arrested and convicted. The Alien Terrorist Removal Court (ATRC) issued Zada, who lived in Fort Worth, Texas, a deportation order on August 20, which was unsealed Friday following her removal from the United States.
