January 6 hearings: key themes of US Capitol attack investigation

The underlying questions will be how deeply Trump was involved, did he break the law and is there enough evidence for charges

The House select committee investigating the January 6 Capitol attack is expected to touch on a number of key themes as it runs through six public hearings where it will make the case that Donald Trump violated the law as he sought to overturn the 2020 election results.

The panel has already said - and won - in court that it believed Trump and his top advisers conspired to obstruct a congressional proceeding and defrauded the United States, as part of an effort to obtain otherwise privileged documents.
