CNN sued the FBI for access to case files and other documents related to interviews with about 500 witnesses questioned during Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation failed to respond to CNN’s Freedom of Information Act request for the documents, known as "302s," the news organization said in a suit filed Tuesday in Washington. CNN is seeking a court order forcing the FBI to hand the documents over.
