REUTERS/Marco Bello/File PhotoLONDON -Donald Trump is suing a British private investigations firm in a London court to prove claims that he engaged in"perverted sexual acts" in Russia are false, the former U.S. president said in documents released on Monday.
Many of the allegations were never substantiated and lawyers for Trump, 77, said in court filings on Monday that the report is"egregiously inaccurate". Orbis, however, argues that Trump is bringing the claim simply to address his"longstanding grievances" against the company and Steele. But Orbis' lawyer Antony White said Trump's lawsuit should be thrown out of court as any reputational damage and distress suffered by Trump was caused by BuzzFeed's publication of the dossier, which White said was never intended to be made public.
He also cited Trump's counterclaim against the writer E. Jean Carroll and claims against New York state Attorney General Letitia James as demonstrating his"long history of repeatedly bringing frivolous, meritless and vexatious claims" to harass his perceived enemies.
