Donald Trump is expected to become the first former or sitting US president to face criminal charges.
Donald Trump is expected to appear in a New York court on Tuesday, where he will become the first former or sitting US president to face criminal charges.
Charges have not yet been released, but a grand jury is investigating a $130,000 payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, who claims to have had an extramarital affair with Trump, which he has always denied.
Media reports in the US suggest the former president may face other charges as well.
Trump denies all allegations and says he is the victim of a witch hunt by Democrats, whom he accuses of trying to derail his 2024 election campaign.
