US Supreme Court grants Donald Trump immunity from prosecution

The US Supreme Court has sent Donald Trump's claim that he is immune from prosecution for his actions while president back to a lower court. The former president faces prosecution over his role in the deadly January 6 riots in 2021 at the Capitol and alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election result. The Supreme Court suggested he could be entitled to immunity from prosecution for 'official acts' while president, but that this protection would not apply to acts as a private citizen.
