DONALD TRUMP HAS BEEN ORDERED BY THE US SUPREME COURT TO HAND OVER HIS TAX RETURNS

Donald Trump has been ordered by the US supreme court to hand over his tax returns and other financial record to prosecutors in New York.

The former US President has been refusing to release the documents for several years despite a precedent that Presidential candidates should do so

A lower court had earlier ruled that the records were pertinent to a criminal investigation

The ruling does not necessarily mean the files will be made public
