Elon Musk is under federal investigations, Twitter says in court filing

Twitter disclosed in a court filing that Elon Musk is under federal investigation concerning his conduct in the $44 billion takeover deal.
The filing did not specify the exact focus of the probes or which federal authorities are conducting them, but noted Musk's attorneys claimed 'investigative privilege' to withhold relevant documents.
Musk's legal team referenced drafts of an email to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and a slide presentation to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) among the withheld documents.
Musk's attorney, Alex Spiro, dismissed Twitter's filing as a 'misdirection,' asserting that Twitter's own executives are under federal investigation.
