The U.S. Department of Justice has indicted former FBI Director James Comey a second time, CNN reported on Tuesday, citing two sources familiar with the case.
The specific charges were not yet clear nor was it clear where the case would be brought, according to CNN. The indictment would mark the second time the Justice Department under Trump has indicted Comey, a longtime foe of President Donald Trump. Comey was charged with making a false statement and obstructing Congress in September, but a federal judge dismissed the case after finding that the prosecutor who secured the indictment was not lawfully appointed.
A Justice Department spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
