How to verify/falsify claims about unsuccessful undetected attempts?

Suppose there's a story similar to Schlabrendorff's -
X, who is known to be in the entourage of a VIP, planted a bomb somewhere close enough to kill the VIP if detonated, but the bomb somehow failed to detonate, X then removed the bomb without being detected by the authorities -
is any claim like this neither verifiable nor falsifiable?

Suppose there's a story similar to Gersdorff's -
a VIP cancelled or shortened his scheduled visit to a location; Y, who is known to be in that location during that time, would have otherwise assassinated the VIP, the authorities had no idea what Y was up to -
is any claim like this neither verifiable nor falsifiable?
 
ummm such a claim is totally verifiable or fasifiable if X or Y was using a body camera. not sure if this answers your question.

This sounds to me like some sort of homework question from a philosophy(?) course. it's not considered cool to ask ah.com to help you with your homework.

Of course if it's not a homework question then it might help more to understand the purpose of the question...
