"The birth certificate of US President Barack Obama could be a forgery, a controversial Arizona sheriff claims.
Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County - who styles himself as America's toughest - unveiled the results of a probe into the origins of the document. His investigators found "probable cause" the certificate may have been made by "forgery and fraud", he said.
Mr Arpaio, known for his tough stance on immigration, is being investigated over allegations of racial profiling. The US justice department alleges that his office routinely discriminated against Latinos.
He also faces a federal grand jury investigation into the activities of his anti-corruption unit, and a forthcoming re-election bid in Maricopa County....
.....Critics have suggested that Mr Arpaio launched his probe into Mr Obama's birth certificate to distract attention from his legal wrangles, as well as to aid his upcoming re-election bid.
But the sheriff denied those accusations, telling reporters at his news conference on Thursday: "I'm not going after Obama. I'm just doing my job.""
