This morning, a big piece of news, like bomb, woke up asleep France.
Just on the morning of March 20, French time, Paris police quietly raided the home of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy, can not help but say that he grabbed a sleepy face of Sarkozy, directly back to the police for questioning!
Sarkozy will be detained for 48 hours, during which time the police will be interrogated, no one can visit.
Mrs. coming to deliver the meal? No, refused.
Lawyers to emphasize Sarkozy's human rights? No, refused.
The reason for Sarkozy's arrest was an old account 11 years ago that he was suspected of illegally raising political money from Libya in 2007.
The amount involved is as high as 50 million euros.
Mr Sarkozy started out as a promising young man: he graduated from the political school in Paris, the cradle of politicians, with a master's degree in law.
He became the youngest mayor in French history at the age of 28 and later joined government as Minister of economy, Finance and Industry and Minister of the Interior.
In 2007, when the French common people crazily sucked powder, finally defeated a group of powerful opponents, successfully elected president of France, the next year married Bai Fumei supermodel wife Bruni, to the peak of life.
But the president does not seem to have done much since his five-year tenure has contributed to some of the flimsy news enjoyed by bystanders. So in 2012, Sarkozy failed re-election, moved away from the Elys é e Palace.
With Sarkozy out-of-date former president, what he has done is a bit of a shrewd revelation.
In 2011, when the Libyan war broke out, and the world police force, the United States, had not yet decided which side to help, France was the first to yell at the first word to admit Libya's anti-government armed forces. And to do so immediately send troops to Qaddafi-led Libyan government to carry out military operations.
Gaddafi's second son Saif saw the situation, immediately jumped out to denounce Sarkozy's white-eyed wolf:
"Sarkozy won the 2007 presidential election with Libyan money, and we have all the details at the time and are ready to make them public."
"now what we want Sarkozy to do most is to give the money back to the Libyan people."
"Sarkozy took our money so that he could help the Libyan people, but what he did let us down!"
This remark, immediately let the whole Frenchman fry the pot.
People can't help but recall: the past few years Sarkozy and Gadhafi seem to have a very strong relationship ah!
Every time you meet, not only do you have to shake hands politely,
We have to go hand in hand ~
Now suddenly turned to revenge, there must be a strange!
However, despite the discussion, but there is no evidence, Sarkozy is also happy to worry, focused on the killing of Gadhafi.
In early 2012, French investigative news site Mediapart received a series of information from senior members of Libya's National Transitional Council.
Prior to the 2007 French election, Sarkozy and his campaign began several trips to Libya for funding, according to the data.
There is even a Arab-language document that says "agree to support candidate Nicolas Sarkozy's presidential campaign for 50 million euros." here is the signature of Gadhafi's intelligence chief, Mussa Kussa, in 2006.
The money is said to have been traded to Sarkozy through a Libyan weapon businessman whose doctors said they had seen Sarkozy negotiate access to the money.
However, Sarkozy said that there are always people who want to harm me, these documents are forged, in the face of questioning also leisurely turned disdainful white eyes:
"that's funny!"
"even if Gadhafi gave me the money, I wouldn't be very grateful!"
But even though Sarkozy strongly denied it, he was targeted by the judiciary, except that as president, he had judicial immunity as a death-free gold medal.
As soon as his term of office ended in 2012, judges and other investigators from the Paris Financial Crime investigation team raided his home.
Faced with all the interrogations, Sarkozy has consistently denied the three companies:
In the end, however, it did not work out, and Sarkozy was washed up for some reason.
Then Sarkozy led a simple and happy life of unemployment, nothing to accompany his wife to a concert, on the talk show to tell jokes. And when they feel too depraved, they do not hesitate to run for president again, and then do not unexpectedly lose the election.
He looked up at the sky 45 degrees, sighed, smiled bitterly, and decided to start a simple and happy unemployment life of 2.0.
But he did not expect that, this time, the old ones that had failed to do so had returned to life.
It turns out that, although there was no result at that time, the Paris police and prosecutors did not give up, starting in 2013. Money laundering with "active and passive corruption", "power trading", "falsification and use of false documents", "misuse of business assets", Money laundering accomplices and concealment "charges of illegal political donations in Libya opened an untargeted investigation."
After years of hard work, the police have a lot of information.
So there was the beginning of the article, Sarkozy was taken back to police custody for interrogation.
If the bill is settled in the next 48 hours, the police will immediately file a complaint with the court. Sarkozy, this life can not be out of the situation, it is not easy to say.
