WASHINGTON: The US Congressional committee probing the attack on Capitol Hill has summoned former US President Donald Trump to testify on last year's January 6 violence.

"Breaking: The Select Committee unanimously votes to subpoena Donald J. Trump, former President of the United States, to provide evidence as part of the committee's investigation," January 6th Committee tweeted on Thursday after its ninth hearing. At the latest hearing, the committee released new details about the former US president's plans to claim victory in the US election, The Hill reported. They also probed his refusal to accept defeat in the face of evidence.

"Trump's claims were not supported by sufficient evidence of fraud or irregularities. In fact, they were baseless, as judges repeatedly recognized. In none of these 62 cases was Trump able to establish any viable claims of fraud sufficient to overturn the election results," the Committee said in another tweet.

Representative Liz Cheney, the vice chair of the committee, said the panel is obligated to seek answers directly from the man who set this all in motion. (ANI)
