The man was arrested after Tolcy Gabbard and her husband threatened
The Ministry of Justice announced on Monday that a man is facing a federal charge after threatening to kill the director of National Intelligence, Toulcy Gabbard and her husband.
The Ministry of Justice said in a press statement that Aliakar Mohamed Amin, 24, from Lilpourne, Georgia, sent text messages a threat about Gabbard and her husband, Abraham Williams, between March 29 and April 1. He was charged with sending threats between the states.
“Prepare for death, you, Toulsi, and everyone who sticks to it,” wrote one of the texts, according to the statement. “America will burn.”
Federal prosecutors said another message said that Gabbard was “living in a wig” and warned that her house was “a legitimate goal and will be hit at a time and place of our choice.”
In a text sent to Williams, according to a complaint filed by the Federal Prosecutors, Amin said: “Tell your wife to be always in her best behavior and lack of disobedience to Mr. Vladimir Putin’s orders. [Russian Flag + Bear emoji]. But we can also be angry bears [Russian flag + bear emoji]”
Gabbard and a lawyer of Amin did not return to comment immediately.
On Friday, when Amin was arrested, Gabbard thanked the FBI for X.
“Thank you FBIand @usmarshalshqAnd the enforcement of the local law to serve you and dedicate to the arrest of this extremist and dangerous criminal who has repeatedly threatened in my life, my family and my family. Realdonaldtrump“I wrote. Thank you for your hard work every day to keep the American people safe.”
The federal authorities said that they found additional threat messages linked to Amin’s social media accounts, including a picture depicting a pointed pistol on a photo of Japdard and a similar image addressed to Gabbard and her husband. They said that the authorities also found a firearm from Amin’s house.
“This arrest is a clear warning: If you participate in this type of criminal behavior, you will be arrested and you will go to prison,” Paul Brown, a private agent responsible for the FBI in Atlanta, said in the press statement.
This announcement came a day after the authorities arrested a man who stormed the house of the governor of Pennsylvania Josh Shapiru while the family was asleep and began multiple fires with Molotov cocktails. The accident was condemned by the two parties.
“I do not give a curse if it comes from a specific side or the other, directed to a specific party or another, or one person or another, so there is nothing wrong and it must stop,” Shapiro said on Sunday.
