US Attorney General Loretta Lynch has said that Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton would not face any charges over allegations that she violated rules by using a private email server while she was US Secretary of State.In a statement, much to the relief of the Clinton campaign, Lynch said on Wednesday she has accepted the recommendation of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in this regard.
“Late this afternoon, I met with FBI Director James Comey and career prosecutors and agents who conducted the investigation of Secretary Hillary Clinton’s use of a personal email system during her time as Secretary of State,” she said.
“I received and accepted their unanimous recommendation that the thorough, year-long investigation be closed and that no charges be brought against any individuals within the scope of the investigation,” Lynch said in a statement, which legally closes the case against the former Secretary of State.
