Donald Trump will not be put in handcuffs, his lawyer has said, after the former president was ordered to face charges in New York over hush money payments.

Joe Tacopina told ABC News "the president will not be put in handcuffs” when he is arraigned next week in Manhattan.

He added his legal team was working on the logistics of voluntary surrender to authorities, and Mr Trump is "not going to hole up in Mar-a-Lago," referring to his primary residence in Florida.
