'The suggestion that anything was inappropriate is completely false and incredibly irresponsible,' a statement from the Trump Organization said.
Records from the Trump National Golf Club and the town of Ossining, which manages the club taxes, were subpoenaed by the Westchester County district attorney's office, thereported. The newspaper cited"people with knowledge of the matter" in its report, but did not disclose why they remained unnamed.
The Trump Organization, the former president's larger real estate company, dismissed the probe as a political move in a statement. It said that, in June, it reached a compromise with the town, that a county judge approved, after a protracted bid to have taxes lowered, according to AP. The probe adds to several legal challenges facing the former president and his company. In July, the Manhattan district attorney indicted the company and its longtime financial chief with allegedly failing to pay taxes on employee perks, like cars and apartments. Both the company and the finance chief, Allen Weisselberg, have pleaded not guilty.
