New York:
Donald Trump committed fraud by inflating the value of his real estate and financial assets, a New York judge ruled on Tuesday.
The ruling by Judge Arthur Engoron is a setback for the former president ahead of a trial in the case due to begin on Monday.
New York Attorney General Letitia James has filed a civil case against Trump and his two eldest sons accusing them of submitting “grossly inflated” numbers to banks and insurers to secure loans and insurance coverage.
