WASHINGTON, (APP/AFP) – Close aides to
Hillary Clinton including longtime confidante Huma Abedin have been interviewed by the FBI as part of its investigation into the ex-secretary of state’s use of a private email server, CNN reported Thursday.
The interviews, confirmed to the network by US officials briefed on
the probe, mark a step forward in the Federal Bureau of Investigation probe, which the officials described as nearing its end.
The probe has focused on the security of the Clinton server and
whether classified information was exchanged.
The officials said no date had yet been set for an FBI interview of
Clinton, the likely Democratic presidential nominee, but that one was expected in the coming weeks, CNN reported.
Abedin has cooperated with investigators, who have not found evidence
that proves Clinton willfully violated the law, it added.
Bryan Pagliano, the former State Department staffer who reportedly
helped set up Clinton’s server and has been granted immunity in the criminal
investigation, was also expected to be interviewed.
