Ministry of Justice USA yesterday, on Monday, he opposed the publication of a court document, which, it is believed, can shed light on the reasons why federal police conducted an unprecedented raid on the home of a former Republican president Donald Trump last week.

A Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) raid on Trump’s palatial Mar-a-Lago home in Florida – never before carried out at a former president’s home – has sparked a political storm in the US as the mogul and his followers denounce the “witch”. hunting”.

Several organizations, including the media, demanded that the judge release a court document explaining why an investigation was deemed necessary.

However, yesterday the Ministry of Justice objected that the publication of the reasons “would cause irreparable damage to the ongoing criminal investigation,” the document says.

On Friday, at the request of the prosecutor’s office, this time the judge published a search warrant and a list of documents found and seized.

But unlike the first batch of documents, the document being asked to provide this time contains “highly sensitive information about witnesses, the methods used by the police, and facts that are “extremely important for the investigation,” the Justice Department ruled.

Its release could reveal the researchers’ strategy and “jeopardize the success of the investigation,” he added.

According to documents released Friday, the judiciary suspects that the Republican violated US espionage laws, which are extremely strict on possession of confidential documents. The list of seized documents includes several documents classified as “top secret”.

Donald Trump, who has been hinting more and more lately that he will return to the race for the White House in 2024, for his part assured that the documents found and seized have been declassified.

On Monday, he complained that his passports had been confiscated and declared himself the victim of “an attack on a political opponent the likes of which we have never seen in our country.” The US is becoming a “third world!” shouted the real estate mogul.
