NEW YORK - Manhattan's district attorney on Monday suggested a grand jury subpoena for US President Donald Trump's tax returns was part of an investigation of"possibly extensive and protracted criminal conduct at the Trump Organisation," including alleged insurance and bank fraud.
In a court filing last week, Trump's lawyers argued the subpoena was"wildly overbroad" and issued in"bad faith." Vance noted in the court papers that when the subpoena was issued last August, there were"public allegations of possible criminal activity" at the Trump Organisation dating back a decade. He said public reports show a basis for each category and timeframe of documents sought from Trump's accounting firm, Mazars USA.
In a footnote to Monday's filing, Vance cited media reports on Trump's alleged role in the hush-money scheme and on the"unorthodox strategies" he used to expand his real estate empire.
