Washington, July 27 (ANI): An Uzbek man, living illegally in the US, has been indicted for allegedly making multiple threats to assassinate President Barack Obama, then gaining possession of explosive material and a machine gun.
The indictment stated Ulugbek Kodoriov is accused of making four threats against Obama from July 9 to 13.
Kodoriov, who lived in Jefferson County, eventually gained possession of a Sendra Corporation Model M15-A1 rifle, which was illegal because of his immigration status, according to the indictment.
He also allegedly obtained an explosive intended for use as a grenade, Fox News reports.
Authorities sought any information in his room regarding Obama, as well as sniper rifles, documents relating to assassinations and Jihadist manuals.
According to the warrant, Kodoriov contacted an FBI source on July 9, and asked about ways to kill the president by a long-range shot. (ANI)
