Sarkozy accuses justice system of trying to ‘humiliate’ him
Former president Nicolas Sarkozy has accused France’s justice system of trying to “humiliate” and “destroy” him, after he was charged in a corruption probe that could spell trouble for his future political ambitions.
The former conservative party leader fought back in a broadcast interview on Wednesday, just hours after his release from questioning over a highly publicised investigation into judicial allegations that he took €50m in illegal campaign funds from Libya’s Muammar Gaddafi.
