Washington, USA: On Tuesday, Special Counsel Jack Smith submitted a superseding indictment in the election interference case against former President Donald Trump. This move narrows the scope of the allegations, reflecting a recent Supreme Court ruling on immunity.

According to statements from the special counsel's office, reported by several U.S. media outlets, the new indictment, presented to a fresh grand jury unfamiliar with the previous evidence, aims to align with the Supreme Court's directives from the Trump v. United States case.

Although all four original charges against Trump remain intact, the revised indictment excludes certain allegations, including those involving attempts to leverage the Justice Department to support Trump's baseless claims of election fraud, as reported by CNN.

This development follows the Supreme Court's ruling last month, which acknowledged Trump's entitlement to some immunity for official actions but not for actions taken in his capacity as a candidate.

Smith's prosecution focuses on Trump's alleged criminal interference in the 2020 presidential election, while Trump's legal team has been seeking to dismiss the case, arguing presidential immunity.

The ruling may also impact the case in Florida, where Trump faces charges related to the handling of classified documents taken after his presidency and his refusal to return them to the government.
