Sarkozy faces serious charges including passive corruption and illegal campaign financing linked to his 2007 presidential campaign, with potential prison time of up to 10 years.
The 'Libyan case' emerged in 2011 when it was claimed that Gaddafi’s government financed Sarkozy's campaign, with Gaddafi himself suggesting, 'It’s thanks to us that he reached the presidency.'
Despite multiple allegations, Sarkozy adamantly denies the accusations and has labeled certain documents as 'blatant fake,' while authorities have linked them to authentic credentials.
The trial is set to run until April 10, amidst ongoing discussions of Sarkozy's influential role in conservative politics despite his retirement in 2017.
