Verdict on Sarkozy trial over alleged Libyan campaign financing
PARIS (Reuters) -The Paris criminal court found former French president Nicolas Sarkozy guilty of criminal conspiracy in a case related to the provision of millions of euros in illegal financing from late Libyan strongman Muammar Gaddafi for his successful 2007 presidential bid.
Prosecutors alleged that Sarkozy, who has always denied the charges, made a deal with Gaddafi in 2005, when he was France's interior minister, to obtain campaign financing in exchange for supporting the then-isolated Libyan government on the international stage.
Sarkozy was acquitted of all other charges. The ruling is ongoing.
