Donald Trump's lawyer has said the ex-president's legal team has not seen the indictment against him and has only media reports to go on.

Joe Tacopina was speaking after a grand jury voted to indict Mr Trump in connection with a $130,000 pay-out to porn star Stormy Daniels.

Mr Trump's legal team did not know about the indictment until Thursday evening, Mr Tacopina told CBS.

He blamed "political persecution" for the grand jury's decision.

Mr Trump is expected to appear in court to face the charges and enter a plea in New York, reportedly next Tuesday.

He will not be put in handcuffs when he does, Mr Tacopina told ABC News.

He added: "I understand they're going to be closing off blocks around the courthouse, shutting down the courthouse."
