The daughter of black civil rights activist Malcolm X says she is suing New York City Police Department and other agencies over his 1965 murder.

Ilyasah Shabazz says US officials fraudulently concealed evidence that they "conspired to and executed their plan to assassinate" her father.

She announced the planned legal action at the site where he was fatally shot in New York exactly 58 years ago.

The FBI and CIA were also named in the legal filing, a lawyer said.

It's said Malcolm X's family intends to file a wrongful death lawsuit seeking damages in the range of $100m (£83m).

The NYPD told the BBC it would not comment on pending litigation. The FBI and CIA did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
