Ivanka Trump takes stand in New York civil fraud trial

Ivanka Trump, the daughter of former US president Donald Trump, has testified in a civil fraud trial against the Trump Organization. While she is not a defendant in the case, she was subpoenaed to testify. The trial alleges that the Trump family inflated the value of their real estate assets to secure more favorable bank loans and insurance terms. New York state Attorney General Letitia James stated that Ivanka Trump was involved in the scheme and personally benefited from it. The Trump family faces up to $250 million in penalties and potential removal from the management of their company.
