Former US President Donald Trump was arrested at the Manhattan district attorney's office, reports the national portal "Adyrna" with reference to CNN.
He was charged under 34 sections.
That is, in connection with the bribery of porn star Stormy Daniels (real name - Stephanie Cliffords).
Before the 2016 election, Donald Trump paid Stormy Daniels $130,000 through his lawyer to keep quiet about having contacted him a decade earlier.
The payment wasn't illegal, but the politician's lawyer billed it as a legal fee, and it's considered falsification of accounting in New York state and is punishable by a felony.
But Donald Trump pleaded not guilty.
Thus, he became the first ex-president in the history of the United States to be officially prosecuted by a court.
