must a person be before they are considered assassinated and not just murdered?

My understanding is that assassinated means a political murder,I am not sure but it seems to me that all the people assassinated have been politicians or something to do with politics

they gotta be important enough that they can influence people either by direct or indirect action and that their influence means change of some sort that others are against. they get knocked off so they can't be influential anymore.
