A newly-unsealed federal indictment accuses former U.S. president Donald Trump of conspiring with six close allies to try and overturn his 2020 election loss to President Joe Biden and unlawfully block the transfer of power, which culminated in the deadly Jan. 6, 2021, attack by Trump’s supporters on the U.S. Capitol.

Trump was charged with four criminal counts, including conspiracy to defraud the United States, attempting to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy to “injure, oppress, threaten, and intimidate” those exercising the right to vote “and to have one’s vote counted,” according to the document. The last statute is part of the Civil Rights Act.

U.S. Department of Justice special counsel Jack Smith delivered a statement on Tuesday, providing details on Trump's latest indictment for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results.

"The attack on our nation's Capitol on January 6, 2021 was an unprecedented assault on the seat of American democracy," Smith said.
