Former United States President Donald Trump is currently
defending 29 civil lawsuits, and he's also the subject of
multiple criminal investigations, including one into whether he
personally, along with the Trump Organisation, committed various
offences of fraud – including bank, tax and insurance
fraud.
An investigation into Mr Trump's business and personal
financial affairs began when he was still president.
In 2018, his former personal lawyer Michael Cohen was imprisoned
for his role in paying hush-money during the 2016 presidential
campaign to two women who said they had had affairs with Mr
Trump.
He was sentenced to three years behind bars for making the
payments, which violated campaign finance law, and for making false
statements to Congress.
