Trump slams US government for ‘unjustified’ pursuit of classifed documents

WASHINGTON, 02 Septmeber 2022, (TON): Former US president Donald Trump’s legal team on Wednesday dismissed the government’s unjustified pursuit of classified documents at his home and said “the raid in which they were seized was legally dubious and unnecessary.”

Responding to a bombshell filing in which the US Department of Justice said top secret documents were likely concealed at Trump’s estate to obstruct an FBI probe, his attorneys insisted that his possession of sensitive information should have come as no surprise.

A court filing by Trump’s team said “the purported justification for the initiation of this criminal probe was the alleged discovery of sensitive information contained within the 15 boxes of presidential records.”
