Donald Trump will hand himself over to authorities in Georgia later this week, the former US president said on Monday. Trump said on his own platform Truth Social, that he will be going to George on Thursday to be arrested.
He claimed the indictment was politically motivated as part of a bid to derail his reelection campaign.
Earlier on Monday, broadcaster CNN reported he would give himself up at the Fulton County jail in the US state of Georgia.
In a 98-page Georgia indictment revealed last week, prosecutors accused Trump and 18 other defendants of conspiring to subvert the will of voters by keeping him in the White House after he lost to Joe Biden.
Trump and the co-defendants were charged with a total of 41 criminal counts in connection with efforts to overturn his electoral loss in the state.
His bond was set at $200,000 (€180,000) and he has been ordered not to post threatening messages on social media.
"The defendant shall perform no act to intimidate any person known to him or her to be a co-defendant or witness in this case or to otherwise obstruct the administration of justice," Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee said in a three-page court filing.
Tte judge mentioned that the above shall include, but are not limited to, posts on social media or reposts of posts made by another individual on social media.
