MUELLER EYEING DEUTSCHE: REPORT

FRANKFURT, GERMANY A German business newspaper is reporting that former FBI director Robert Mueller has subpoenaed records from Deutsche Bank as part of his investigation into possible Russian involvement in the U.S. presidential election campaign.

The report in the Handelsblatt newspaper cites only “informed circles.” Handelsblatt said it was not clear whether the demand sought information regarding U.S. President Donald Trump or other members of his circle.

A lawyer for Trump denied the report: “No subpoena has been issued or received. We have confirmed this with the bank and other sources,” Jay Sekulow said.

A bank spokesman said Tuesday that Deutsche Bank had no comment.

Deutsche Bank has been one of the few major banks willing to regularly lend to Trump, who alienated large banks in New York with his past financial troubles.
