US President Donald Trump has put the credibility of his formal personal lawyer back under the spotlight, accusing Michael Cohen of lying under oath to lawmakers when the lawyer denied ever asking Trump for a presidential pardon.

Cohen, addressing a congressional committee in a public hearing on February 27, said,"I have never asked for, nor would I accept, a pardon from President Trump."

"He's lied about a lot of things, but when he lied about the pardon, that really was a lie," Trump earlier told reporters at the White House. Cohen's spokesman Lanny Davis told ABC news this week that Cohen's statement to congress was technically true, as he had never personally asked Trump for a pardon.
