Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort lied to prosecutors about his contacts with the White House and an associate with suspected ties to Russian intelligence while he was under investigation, special counsel Robert Mueller’s office said in a filing Friday.
The heavily redacted report filed in the criminal case against Manafort in Washington, D.C., comes over a week after prosecutors accused the one-time Trump campaign chief of “committing federal crimes by lying to the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the special counsel’s office on a variety of subject matters” in breach of his plea agreement.

At 5 p.m. on Friday, District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson granted Mueller’s request to file the report under seal and ordered a redacted version to be published on the public docket.
