A $200 bail is set for Trump in the case of the Georgia election

A judge in Georgia, who is overseeing the case of former US President Donald Trump's interference in the election in this country, has set a bail of 200 thousand dollars.

Trump and 18 other defendants have until Friday afternoon to appear in court in Atlanta.

The $200 bail would allow Trump to remain free during the trial, as long as he does not threaten or intimidate witnesses.

Trump has denied all 13 counts, including racketeering and making false statements.
