A Stoplight Execution: The FBI's Hunt for a Political Assassin

from True Crime Hosted by Media Network

In a brazen act of political vengeance, Mir Qazi ambushed two CIA officers as they sat in their cars at a Virginia stoplight, gunning them down in cold blood. The calculated assassination, motivated by anger over U.S. foreign policy, sent shockwaves through the intelligence community and stunned the nation. With the killer having instantly fled the country, the FBI launched an international manhunt, placing Qazi on its Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list and offering a massive reward for his capture. This is the story of the relentless global pursuit to bring a shadowy assassin to justice for one of the most audacious attacks on American soil.
