Mr. Hunter, the second son of President-elect Joe Biden of the United States, has revealed that he is under investigation by the prosecutor's office regarding his tax processing.

President Trump has repeatedly accused Mr. Hunter of suspicion, and it is expected that criticism will increase in the future.

Mr. Hunter, the second son of President-elect Biden, issued a statement through the transition team on the 9th, revealing that he is under investigation by local prosecutors in eastern Delaware regarding his tax treatment.



"We take the situation very seriously, but I am confident that I can prove that I have done the tax processing legally and properly," Hunter said in a statement.



"The next president-elect, Biden, is proud of his son, who has struggled with difficulties, including malicious personal attacks, in recent months," Biden's transition team said in a statement.



Delaware prosecutors have told NHK that they "cannot comment because they are under investigation," but CNN TV said in an investigation that Mr. Hunter was dealing with China and other countries overseas. It is reported that it is investigating whether there were any illegal acts such as tax evasion and money laundering.



Mr. Trump has repeatedly argued that President Trump has been accused of fraudulently profiting from overseas transactions, and it is expected that criticism will increase in the future.
