New York’s top justice official wants former US president Donald Trump to testify in an investigation into possible fraud in his namesake real estate group, The Washington Post reports.
State Attorney General Letitia James has asked Trump to testify in person at her office in the probe into whether the Trump Organization may have illegally reported false values on its properties, potentially to gain banking and tax advantages, according to the Post.
James wants Trump to testify on January 7, the Post says, citing people familiar with the matter.
There is no immediate comment from either James’ office or Trump.
