PEMBROKE PARK, Fla. – A central Florida woman is accused of plotting to kill Gov. Rick Scott.

Ruba Khandaqji, 36, of Celebration, was arrested Wednesday by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. She faces a charge of corruption by threat against a public official.

According to the arrest affidavit, Khandaqji "threatened to hire a hitman to assassinate the governor" in a recorded telephone with an Osceola County Sheriff's Office 911 dispatcher.

"I'm going to hire a hitman and kill whomever I can kill," a woman who identified herself as Khandaqji said in the 911 call. "Why? Because they should deport me to my homeland directly."

According to the report, in February, Khandaqji posted a message on Scott's official website in which she recommended that Scott "start a deportation procedure" for her.

Then in March, according to the report, U.S. Capitol police notified the FDLE that they had encountered Khandaqji in Washington, where she was attempting to meet with U.S. Department of State officials "to demand her deportation." Police determined that there was no credible threat at that time.

"Your trash governor is torturing me here," Khandaqji said during the 911 call. "I'm forced to live here. I hope that this call is recorded. Pass it to your governor. Tell him she is hiring a hitman."

The FDLE said Khandaqji "has a documented history of mental instability."
