Donald Trump failed to disclose a $19.8m loan from a conglomerate with links to North Korea when he was the president of the US, Forbes reported, citing documents obtained by the New York attorney general.

The former president had an unreported liability that he owed to South Korean company Daewoo, while he was running for the White House in 2016. He paid off the loan just five months into his presidency, the documents revealed.

The report comes as jurors in the Trump Organization’s tax fraud trial began deliberating Monday, following four weeks of testimony about executive pay practices at Mr Trump’s real estate company that prosecutors said amounted to a criminal scheme which went on for at least 15 years.

During approximately four hours of deliberations, jurors sent one note to the judge requesting clarification on one of the charges. The jury resumes deliberations Tuesday.

The twice-impeached president has also been in the line of fire over his remarks calling for “termination” of parts of the US Constitution to overturn the 2020 election, with the White House demanding more Republicans step up and rebuke his comments.
