DONALD TRUMP’S data protection claim over allegations he took part in “perverted” sex acts and paid bribes to Russian officials was dismissed by a High Court judge in London today.
The former US president brought legal action against Orbis Business Intelligence, a consultancy founded by former MI6 officer Christopher Steele – and sought compensation for distress.
Mr Steele, who previously ran the Secret Intelligence Service’s Russia desk, was the author of a dossier that included allegations Mr Trump had been “compromised” by Russian security service the FSB.
