Cincinnati (WKRC) — Asif William Rahman, a CIA employee with ties to the Tri-State area, has been accused of leaking classified information regarding Israeli military attack plans. Rahman, a 2013 Yale graduate who listed Cincinnati as his hometown, was arrested by the FBI this week in Cambodia.
Rahman, who held top-secret security clearance, was apprehended and made his first court appearance in Guam. A federal judge ordered his transfer to Northern Virginia to face charges related to the leak. According to authorities, the classified documents were posted on Telegram last month, raising significant concerns over national security.
