WASHINGTON, June 13 — Former US President Donald Trump arrived on Monday in the state of Florida ahead of his arraignment at a federal courthouse in Miami.
Trump will appear in court on Tuesday over his alleged mishandling of classified documents, reported Anadolu Agency.
He faces 37 charges, including 31 counts of willful retention of national defense information, most of which are tied to documents that were seized when the FBI executed a search warrant at his Mar-a-Lago estate on August 8 last year.
Eleven of the charges relate to documents that were handed over to FBI investigators by Trump's attorney in June.
Miami Police Chief Manny Morales expressed the utmost seriousness regarding Tuesday's event.
"We are taking this event very serious. We know there is a potential of things taking a turn for the worse, but that is not the Miami way," he said at a press conference.
Indicating that the department has sufficient resources to deal with up to 50,000 protestors, Morales added that he does not anticipate any security issues in the city on Tuesday.
