Donald Trump indicted over hush money by a Manhattan grand jury; 1st ex-President charged with crime

The Hindu  

Donald Trump has been indicted by a Manhattan grand jury, prosecutors and defence lawyers said on March 31, making him the first former U.S. President to face a criminal charge and jolting his bid to retake the White House next year. A spokesman for the Manhattan district attorney’s office confirmed the indictment and said prosecutors had reached out to Mr. Trump’s defence team to arrange a surrender. In bringing the charges, Mr. Bragg, the Manhattan District Attorney, is embracing an unusual case that had been investigated by two previous sets of prosecutors, both of which declined to take the politically explosive step of seeking Mr. Trump’s indictment. Federal prosecutors in New York ultimately charged Mr. Cohen in 2018 with violating federal campaign finance laws, arguing that the payments amounted to impermissible help to Mr. Trump’s presidential campaign. While that probe initially focused on the hush money payments, Mr. Vance’s prosecutors moved on to other matters, including an examination of Mr. Trump’s business dealings and tax strategies.
