The Justice Department has filed a lawsuit against former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, alleging he failed to report financial interests held in foreign countries.
The lawsuit, filed Thursday, accuses Manafort of “willful failure to timely report his financial interest in foreign bank accounts,” alleging he failed to report more than 20 offshore accounts between 2006 and 2014.
The suit could result in penalties of nearly $3 million.
Prosecutors allege that Manafort failed to file the necessary reports of foreign bank and financial accounts in 2013 and 2014.
The Justice Department said that Manafort’s firm at the time, DMP International, had income deposited into accounts in Cyprus, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, as well as the United Kingdom.
