Manafort must remain in the cell from the judge

washington - Paul Manafort, former campaign leader of US President Donald Trump, must remain in prison. The Court of Appeal in Washington dismissed Manafort's objection against his imprisonment on Thursday.

Manafort, who is in the sights of special prosecutor Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the US presidential elections in 2016, is stuck on suspicion of multiple offenses. In this way he is being prosecuted for money laundering. Nor would he have given up against the rules that he was lobbying for the Ukrainian government. According to the three judges of the court, Manafort has 'given insufficient valid arguments for release. '

The prosecutor also accuses the 69-year-old businessman of trying to influence witnesses while under house arrest while awaiting trial. The lawsuit against Manafort is being held in a court in the state of Virginia and begins on July 25.
