- Former US Vice-President Mike Pence has testified as part of a criminal investigation into alleged efforts by Donald Trump to overturn his defeat in the 2020 election.
- Mr Pence, 63, sat for more than seven hours before a federal grand jury in Washington DC, sources told the BBC’S US partner CBS News.
- His appearance on Thursday came just hours after an appeals court rejected a last-ditch bid by Mr Trump’s legal team to stop Mr Pence from testifying.
