(ANSA) - NEW YORK, AUG 10 - Donald Trump will not answer questions as part of the investigation by the New York prosecutor about his company and the possibility that it has inflated the value of its assets to obtain better financial conditions.
Trump states this in a note.
"I refused to answer questions based on the rights that are granted to every citizen by the US Constitution."
Trump then invokes the Fifth Amendment, which allows you not to testify against yourself, with the New York attorney.
"I was once asked: 'If you are innocent why invoke the Fifth Amendment?'
Now I know the answer. When your family, your company and all the people in your orbit become the targets of an unfounded, politically motivated witch hunt, you have no other choice - Trump points out -. If I had any doubts about it, they were swept away. from the FBI raid two days before the deposition. I have no other choice because the current administration and many prosecutors in this country have lost their moral and ethical decency. "
