Investigators for the New York state attorney general’s office are expected to take a deposition from Governor Andrew Cuomo on Saturday as part of a sexual harassment probe, The New York Times reported.

Cuomo, 63, had been riding high last year after public praise of his daily news conferences during the height of the coronavirus pandemic. But he then suddenly faced calls to resign following a flurry of accusations of sexual harassment or misconduct and revelations that his administration under-reported nursing home deaths from COVID-19.
