New York: Michael Cohen, US President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney, has pleaded guilty to lying to Congress about a Russia real estate project that Trump and his company pursued at the same time he was securing the Republican nomination in 2016. In a nine-page filing, prosecutors at a courtroom in Lower Manhattan on Thursday laid out a litany of lies that Cohen admitted he told lawmakers in Congress about the Moscow project, reports The Washington Post. Cohen appeared on Thursday morning before US District Judge Andrew L. Carter Jr., who asked him to enter his plea. “Guilty, your honour,” Cohen replied. As part of the plea, Cohen said he had lied for the person listed in court documents as “Individual 1” - whom Cohen identified in court as Trump. (IANS)
