The Justice Department (DOJ) has told a court on Friday that it is considering whether to release a less-redacted version of former special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

The department said in a three-page filing to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia that it was in the process of reevaluating whether the redactions related to Roger Stone, a former adviser to President Donald Trump, should be made public since Stone’s criminal case has concluded.
