A political associate of President Donald Trump turned himself in at the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation's field office in Washington, D.C.

Paul Manafort and Donald Trump

Donald Trump's former presidential campaign manager, Paul Manafort, has been charged with conspiring to defraud the US in his dealings with Ukraine, BBC reports.

The 12 charges brought against Mr Manafort and one of his business associates, Rick Gates, include conspiracy to launder money.

Mr Manafort and his lawyer have arrived at an FBI office in Washington.

The charges are the first to stem from an inquiry into alleged Russian meddling in the US 2016 election.

However, they do not relate to Mr Trump's campaign but to the two men's Ukrainian business dealings up to 2015.

An investigation headed by special counsel Robert Mueller is looking into any links between Russia and the Trump campaign. Both sides deny any collusion.

We'll be bringing you more details later...
