Donald Trump Jr returned to give evidence on Monday as defence lawyers started calling witnesses in the New York civil fraud trial that threatens his father’s property empire.

Donald Trump’s eldest son returned two weeks after state lawyers questioned him during a long stretch of the trial that also featured evidence from the former president and Donald Trump Jr’s siblings Eric and Ivanka Trump.
