<Gates, who was initially charged alongside Manafort in October, pleaded guilty last month
to conspiracy and lying to FBI agents. He is cooperating with Mueller's investigation.

The documents, filed by special counsel Robert Mueller's team, allege that Richard Gates, a longtime business partner of Manafort and President Trump's former deputy campaign manager, was aware that an unidentified associate "was a former Russian Intelligence Officer."

The documents also allege that Gates and the individual continued to communicate with one another in the months before the 2016 presidential election. Such communication "was pertinent to the investigation," prosecutors said.>
