| Humiliation: A dishevelled Nicolas Sarkozy after 15 hours of police |
As he was driven away from police cells in a black saloon with tinted windows on July first, the diminutive, unkempt passenger in the back seat could have been mistaken for a Parisian pimp arrested for hustling on the Champs-Elysées.
Sarkozy faces 10 years in jail and £400,000 fine after being charged
Charged with corruption and attempting to tamper with investigation
The former French president has been released on bail
He became the first French leader in history to be held in police custody
Yet this unshaven man was none other than Nicolas Sarkozy, the former French president, who is facing up to ten years in jail and a £400,000 fine after being charged with corruption and attempting to tamper with a criminal investigation.
Dubbed President Bling-Bling on account of his penchant for expensive watches and designer sunglasses, Sarkozy was released on bail yesterday morning after becoming the first French leader in history to be held in police custody.
