Former US President Donald Trump will appear in court on April 4.

According to the Associated Press, he will face numerous charges, including at least one criminal one.

The indictment has not yet been released, but according to CNN, Trump will face more than 30 charges related to business fraud.

According to AR information, one of them is a serious crime.

Trump is suspected of falsifying documents to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to porn actress Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal - "for keeping quiet" about sexual relations with him.

These amounts were billed as expenses for legal services during the 2016 presidential campaign, CNN writes.

Trump denies that he had affairs with Daniels and McDougal, calls himself "absolutely innocent" and claims that the case is politically motivated and the judge "hates him."

When Trump appears in court, he will be photographed and fingerprinted — just like any other defendant.

However, according to his lawyer, Trump will not be handcuffed and will probably be released on the same day.

Donald Trump may become the first ex-president in the history of the United States to face criminal charges.

This will not prevent him from running an election campaign: Trump plans to run for president again in 2024 and is already using the prosecution to rally his supporters.
