The Democratic presidential candidate called on the FBI director to explain the new inquiry to the American people.

Hillary Clinton says she is "confident" a new FBI probe linked to her emails will not change its original finding that she should not be prosecuted.

James Comey earlier said the FBI was looking into newly found messages. The latest emails came to light during a separate inquiry into top Clinton aide Huma Abedin's estranged husband, former congressman Anthony Weiner.

Devices belonging to Ms Abedin and Mr Weiner were seized in an investigation into whether he sent sexually explicit emails to a 15-year-old girl in North Carolina.

"It's everybody's hope that justice at last can be delivered," he told supporters at a rally in Iowa.

"The FBI would never have reopened this case at this time unless it were a most egregious criminal offence."

Mr Comey said the FBI would investigate if the newly discovered emails contain classified information.

The FBI chief said in a letter to Congress that investigators had discovered the emails "in connection with an unrelated case... that appear to be pertinent to the investigation".

He said he "cannot yet assess whether or not this material may be significant, and I cannot predict how long it will take us to complete this additional work".
