Paul Manafort — President Donald Trump‘s former campaign chairman — as well as Rick Gates, Manafort’s former business partner, were indicted by a federal grand jury on 12 counts, including conspiracy against the United States, the special counsel Robert Mueller’s office said on Monday.
The indictment was unsealed Monday morning by a federal judge in Washington, D.C., after Manafort and Gates surrendered to the FBI.
