sacked prosecutor in Manhattan

Preet Bharara, the major federal prosecutor in Manhattan, is Saturday fired immediately after he had told not to resign of his own accord.

Bharara made his resignation a tweet released. That was within the hour after he told CNN that it will not go away. He has a remarkable reputation as one of the main opponents of corruption by officials. He continued senior police commissioners and traders on Wall Street, writes The New York Times.

The White House did not respond yet and referred to the Justice Department for comment.

Federal prosecutors in the United States are political appointments. The application of the Trump-government therefore forms part of the normal course of business after a presidential change of power. It is not common for an incoming government will replace all at the same time federal prosecutors. This is done in order not to disrupt the orderly course of justice.
