Former French Prez Sarkozy to Face Trial for Taking Millions From L'Oreal Heiress

EFT Report, Paris: Trouble seems to be brewing for Nicolas Sarkozy as the former French President will now face a criminal trial with a possibility of spending time in prison for allegedly taking over £3 million in 2007 from the richest woman in the world according to Forbes magazine, 90-year-old L’Oreal heiress Liliane Bettencourt.

58-year-old Mr Sarkozy, who lost his immunity from prosecution after his defeat to his Socialist rival Francois Hollande in last year’s presidential election, was formally charged with… let me use the exact words.. ‘abusing the weakness’ of the richest woman in the world after being questioned by a judge at Palais de Justice in Bordeaux, south west France.

Despite this recent development, Sarkozy has hinted that he will still make a bid to return to Elysee Palace (the official residence of President of the French Republic) when France holds its next presidential election in April and May of 2017.
