A French court will rule on September 25 at the trial of former President Nicolas Sarkozy for charges that accepted the financing of the illegal campaign of the late Libyan dictator Moamer Kadhafi, said a judge on Tuesday, April 8.
Sarkozy, who was president from 2007 to 2012, has denied the positions. He is already serving a one -year sentence with an electronic bracelet in a separate influence seller.
Prosecutors argue that the former conservative leader and his assistants devoured a pact with Kadafi in 2005 to illegally finance their victorious offer of presidential elections two years later. They requested that the 70 -year -old served a seven -year prison sentence, pay a fine of € 300,000 and a five -year prohibition of holding the position is given.
When the trial ended on Tuesday, Sarkozy described the lawsuit of the Prosecutor’s Office as a “political and violent” in a “means of communication and a political context.” “I am not here to do politics, but to defend my honor and to establish the truth,” he said, refusing to comment more.
His trial closed shortly after another Paris Court sentenced the extreme right -wing leader Marine Le Pen to a prison penalty and a five -year prohibition of running for the position of embezzlement of the European Union funds, doubting in doubt his attempt to defend the president in 2027. The measure has surprised the political establishment of France and has emphasized his national party Rassemblement.
