WASHINGTON, United States (AFP) — The US Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that President Donald Trump must hand over financial records to prosecutors in New York.
In a 7-2 ruling, the court said the president does not have absolute immunity from criminal investigation.
“Two hundred years ago, a great jurist of our Court established that no citizen, not even the President, is categorically above the common duty to produce evidence when called upon in a criminal proceeding,” the court said. “We reaffirm that principle today.”
