FBI to interrogate Trump as doubts grow over assassination attempt

FBI plans to interrogate former President Donald Trump in connection with an investigation into an assassination attempt on his life. The agency's statement was issued after controversial remarks by FBI Director Christopher Wray, who pointed out doubts regarding Trump's injuries.

FBI intends to interrogate former President Donald Trump in connection with the investigation into the recent assassination attempt. The agency wants to record the victim's testimony, which is standard practice in such cases, as reported by CNN.

According to reports, the FBI's statement was issued in response to controversial remarks made by the agency's director, Christopher Wray, who, during a Congressional hearing, indicated that there are "certain doubts" about whether a bullet or a fragment injured Trump.

The services are still analysing evidence related to the attack on the former president, which took place during his rally in Pennsylvania this month. The FBI considers the shooting an attempted assassination of Trump.

Political reactions to Wray's remarks were swift. Trump stated that he "took a bullet for democracy", and his advisor Steven Cheung added that anyone who believes in these conspiracy theories is "either mentally impaired or deliberately spreading lies for political reasons".

Additionally, CNN pointed out ambiguities concerning the assassination attempt on Trump. Kathleen Puckett, a former FBI behavioural analyst, noted that the attacker, Crooks, did not have the kind of ammunition that many other assassins often have, who are usually well-armed and equipped with bulletproof vests.

The reports say that the expert added that, unlike other mass murderers who usually leave behind letters explaining their actions, the authorities found nothing similar in this case.

Juliette Kayyem, a former Deputy Secretary in the Department of Homeland Security, noted: "It may be a situation where the more we know, the less we understand the exact reason".

The FBI is still conducting its investigation, and interrogating Trump could provide important information in this complex case.
