Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy is going to have difficulties. He was prosecuted on Thursday on nine-year-old charges. In 2012, Sarkozy was accused of spending more than the amount sanctioned in the election. This alleged scandal created problems for his Conservative Party.
Sarkozy has been accused of spending double the amount of $ 2.75 million (about Rs 200 crore) sanctioned in the presidential election. However, he had to face the defeat of his rival François Hollande in the election. Please tell that Sarkozy has denied these allegations. Please tell that Sarkozy has been the President of France from 2007 to 2012.
How much punishment can be done?
The trial of this case against Sarkozy was scheduled in March but was postponed due to the hospitalization of Coronavirus and a lawyer. Now its hearing can go on till 22 June. If the charges leveled against Sarkozy prove to be true and he is found guilty, he could be sentenced to one year in jail. Apart from this, he may also have to pay a fine of $ 4,580 (about Rs. 3,34,000).
According to media reports, Sarkozy has been found guilty in another case of corruption, which he has challenged. Let me tell you that in 1990 election campaign expenses were limited in France because before that there were many corruption cases one after the other. There have been allegations on Sarkozy that he spent a lot more money than the stipulated amount on election rallies.
