Former U.S. President Donald Trump said Friday that his lawyers had been notified by the Biden administration that he had been indicted. He said the indictment apparently related to boxes of documents found in his home. He said he was summoned to appear in federal court in Miami on Thursday.

"The corrupt Biden administration has informed my lawyers that I have been indicted, apparently in connection with the boxes of documents," Biden wrote on his social media network. He presented no evidence that this was true. Several US media outlets reported that Trump is charged with seven counts, including obstruction of justice, intentionally concealing confidential documents and making a false statement.

The Justice Department is investigating a case in which Trump is suspected of leaving classified documents in his possession after leaving the White House in 2021. Investigators seized about 13,100 documents from his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida about a year ago. Of these, about <> were classified as classified. His lawyers argued that all classified documents had been returned to the government. Trump previously argued in his defense that he declassified the documents, but provided no evidence, and his lawyers failed to take that line of defense in court documents.

Yesterday, the American media reported that Trump had received a letter updating him on the ongoing investigation against him. According to The New York Times, citing two people familiar with the matter, the letter sent to Trump came from the office of Special Counsel Jack Smith, who was appointed by the Justice Department to conduct the former president's numerous investigations. Reports of Trump's update on the ongoing investigation came after investigators obtained a recording in which Trump is heard admitting to keeping a classified document — about a plan for a possible attack on Iran — that he took with him after his term ended.

U.S. law prohibits federal officials, including the president himself, from taking or keeping classified documents in unauthorized locations. The allegations against Trump were heard by jurors, who reportedly met in Miami and Washington to hear the evidence gathered in the case and ultimately decide whether it was enough to indict the former president.
