Nasir Tawhedi, an Afghan man who came to the U.S. as part of President Biden’s massive airlift in 2021, agreed to plead guilty to charges of assisting a terrorist organization and attempting to obtain weapons ahead of a planned attack on Election Day last year.

Tawhedi, who now awaits sentencing, admitted to attempting to buy two AK-47 rifles and 500 rounds of ammunition with the intent “to carry out an Election Day attack.” He admitted that he did that as part of an effort to aid the Islamic State, or ISIS.

He agreed to be deported after serving his time.

Tawhedi was part of the massive wave of Afghans the Biden administration allowed into the U.S. in 2021 as Kabul fell to the Taliban.

He was granted “parole,” which the Biden administration used to welcome tens of thousands of Afghans and nearly 3 million people total.

Another Afghan man, Abdullah Haji Zada, 18, pleaded guilty in April to being part of the conspiracy. He admitted he and Tawhedi received two AK-47-style rifles and the ammunition with the intent to use them for the Election Day plot.
