Hunter Biden will plead not guilty to three criminal charges relating to a gun purchase he made in 2018 .

The 53-year-old was indicted last week for possessing a gun while he was an illegal drug user and lying to buy it.

Mr Biden was struggling with a crack cocaine addiction after the loss of his brother Beau to brain cancer.

If convicted, he could face up to 25 years in prison.
