Washington, United States: A US judge on Thursday (Friday in Manila) released parts of the report from a special grand jury investigating potential interference by Donald Trump in the 2020 election -- making public its allegations that witnesses may have lied under oath.

Prosecutors in Georgia have spent two years looking into whether Trump and his allies committed crimes in a bid to overturn his defeat in the southern state to Joe Biden by fewer than 12,000 votes.
