I don't think he was directly behind it. He merely failed to give her the protection she wanted and knew that sooner or later the extremists would find a way to kill her. He knew what would happen but you will never be able to directly tie her death to him. Allowing them to kill her garnered support among the extremists. To bad there is really no promise that he will not be next, which is quite possible.
