The Federal Bureau of Investigation on Friday said a fresh probe into Hillary Clinton’s private server case will begin soon. Agency Director James Comey said they will once again examine the emails that Clinton had sent during her tenure as the secretary of state.

The announcement comes after officials discovered a bunch of new emails on a computer seized during an investigation into sexually explicit text messages sent by former congressman Anthony Weiner to a minor girl in North Carolina. A law enforcement official told the Washington Post that more than 1,000 mails were exchanged between Clinton and her aide Huma Abedin. Abedin is the vice chairperson of Clinton's presidential campaign. Both Clinton and Abedin used email addresses that were routed through the private server.

The announcement comes only days before the United States presidential election on November 8. Republican nominee Donald Trump hailed the fresh investigation. “Perhaps, finally, justice will be done," the 70-year-old New York businessman said.

Clinton, however, continues to be undeterred by the development. "I'm confident whatever [the emails] are will not change the conclusion reached in July," she said. She asked the FBI to release the "full and complete facts" about its review, reported CNN.

Officials are tight-lipped about the matter. They, however, said that most of the emails could be the ones that the FBI has already gone through. The FBI had closed the investigation in July and recommended no action against the presidential hopeful. Comey had said that Clinton and her aides were “extremely careless” while handling classified and sensitive information.

The matter was first reported in March that Clinton had used personal email addresses connected to a privately-owned server, rather than a government email, during her tenure as President Barack Obama's first-term secretary of state.
