In the secret documents affair surrounding Donald Trump 76) there are growing signs that the former US president may soon be indicted. Several US media outlets reported on Wednesday evening (local time) that prosecutors on Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team had informed Trump’s lawyers that he had been personally targeted by their investigation.
This is reportedly a precursor to a possible charge against the 76-year-old Republican, who plans to run again in the 2024 presidential election. The New York Times and CNN news channel reported on the information provided to the lawyers.
The US federal police FBI seized numerous documents, including many with classification levels, during a raid on Trump’s private residence Mar-a-Lago in Florida last August. Trump took the White House documents to Mar-a-Lago at the end of his term in January 2021.

The New York trial in the affair will begin in spring next year. and thus in the middle of the Republican primaries for the 2024 presidential nomination, in which Trump is the clear favorite. (AFP)
