The Trump Organization, the company of former US President Donald Trump, was fined this Friday by a New York judge with 1.6 million dollars (1.48 million euros) for executing a financial and supervisory fraud scheme.
The group of the American billionaire, a candidate for the 2024 presidential elections, was tried for tax evasion and falsification of accounting statements, specifically with the aim of hiding from the tax authorities the financial compensation of some senior leaders.
According to New York law, the maximum that companies can fine for this type of crime is around 1.6 million dollars, an amount applied this Friday by Judge Juan Manuel Merchan.
