Donald Trump, former US President has said he plans to surrender himself on Thursday to a court in the state of Georgia to face charges of election interference.
Donald Trump, who is facing 13 charges including racketeering and false statements, has been granted bail at $200,000 by a judge in Atlanta overseeing his case.
He can remain free pending trial as long as he does not attempt to threaten or intimidate witnesses, including on social media.

The charges relate to his alleged attempts to subvert the 2020 election results in Georgia. Trump has denied any wrongdoing and called the charges politically motivated.
The trial is proposed to begin in March, and Trump, currently leading the Republican race for the 2024 presidential nomination, has said he will not participate in the first Republican televised debate.
Later on Monday Mr Trump posted to his social media platform, Truth Social:
“Can you believe it? I’ll be going to Atlanta, Georgia, on Thursday to be ARRESTED by a Radical Left District Attorney, Fani Willis.”
