Sarkozy’s home raided by police in campaign funding inquiry Alleged illegal donations from L’Oréal heiress probed after former leader loses immunity John Lichfield John Lichfield has been The Independent's man in Paris since 1997, covering French news. Before that, he was the paper's Foreign Editor and he has also worked in Brussels and Washington. Paris Wednesday 04 July 2012 French police have raided the home and offices of former president, Nicolas Sarkozy, as part of a probe into suspected illegal financing of his 2007 presidential campaign by France's richest woman, the L'Oréal heiress. Yesterday's searches were part of an investigation into financing of Mr Sarkozy's 2007 presidential campaign and alleged brown envelopes of cash from Liliane Bettencourt. Detectives searched the mansion rented by Carla Bruni-Sarkozy in a gated community in the west of Paris where she and the former President live with Bruni's 11-year-old son and the couple's new baby daughter. The office of the legal firm where Sarkozy is a partner and a new office he moved into after losing the presidential election to Francois Hollande in May were also searched. The couple were not present during the searches, their lawyer said yesterday. Judicial immunity which protected Mr Sarkozy from legal investigations expired on 15 June. The probe centres on the finances of Ms Bettencourt. A long-running family feud over her cosmetics fortune ballooned into a multi-layered investigation and political affair two years ago. Allegations then emerged that she provided illegal campaign cash to Sarkozy's party during the 2007 campaign. But he vigorously denies the claims. The allegations struck a chord with Mr Sarkozy's critics, who were frustrated with his handling of the recession-hit economy and saw him as too cozy with the rich. An accountant for Ms Bettencourt said in 2010 that she gave €50,000 in cash in 2007 to Mr Sarkozy's party treasurer for the presidential campaign – well beyond the €4,600 legal limit on individual donations. A book released last year suggested that Sarkozy himself received undeclared campaign money. A judge in Bordeaux is currently investigating whether Sarkozy's right-wing UMP party benefited from envelopes of cash from the ageing and mentally fragile Ms Bettencourt, during Sarkozy's successful election campaign in 2007. In February, Eric Woerth, the former French budget minister and treasurer of Sarkozy's ruling UMP party, was placed under judicial investigation over cash he was alleged to have received from the billionaire Ms Bettencourt to fund the 2007 campaign. He denies any wrongdoing. Sarkozy's lawyer, Thierry Herzog, said the raids would show nothing and that he had already supplied information to investigators that debunked suspicions of secret meetings with Bettencourt. "These raids... will as expected prove futile," he said in a statement last night. He said magistrates looking into whether Sarkozy had received campaign funds from Ms Bettencourt had been supplied with diary details of all Sarkozy appointments in 2007. The diary details proved "that the purported 'secret meetings' with Madame Liliane Bettencourt were impossible," he added. Sarkozy, 57, who has taken a low profile since his defeat, could come under the spotlight in a number of legal cases now that he is no longer head of state. He could also become a focus of the separate investigation into whether or not there was a shady "cabinet noir" at the highest reaches of the French government which used the secret services to spy on journalists at Le Monde to uncover their sources for stories about the Bettencourt affair. A security chief and Sarkozy ally has been placed under investigation in the alleged political spying scandal. Sarkozy has denied any links to the case. Days after losing his presidential immunity, relatives of French victims of a deadly bombing in Pakistan in 2003 filed a lawsuit accusing Sarkozy and two former advisers of violating a duty to secrecy in an investigation of the attack.

Policija je pretraživala urede bivšeg francuskog predsjednika Nicolasa Sarkozyja, njegov dom u 16. arondismanu koji pripada supruzi Carli Bruni te odvjetnički ured u kojem ima vlasnički udio u sklopu istrage o nelegalnom financiranju predsjedničke kampanje 2007. U njima, po svemu sudeći, a kako je i Sarkozy pretpostavljao, nije pronađeno ništa što bi ga povezalo s 'aferom Bettencourt', tj. optužbama za sukob interesa Po svoj logici, jučerašnja udarna vijest iz Francuske trebala je biti ona o novim mjerama Ayraultove vlade za državni proračun 2012. i 2013. Novi paket zakona, nazvan 'proračunski kolektiv' predstavljen je parlamentu kako zbog novog sastava Senata i Nacionalne skupštine u kojima socijalisti imaju apsolutnu većinu tako i zbog proračunskih manjkova. Glavna strategija nove vlade bi se, prema riječima premijera, zasad dala opisati kao 'socijalno osjetljiva'. Tako će novi porezi u prvom zamahu zahvatiti velike industrije i imućni sloj, dok bi se srednja klasa nastojala lišiti novih davanja. Konkretno, povećanjem poreza na financijske transakcije i uvođenje novih u energetskom sektoru, na bogatstvo (nazvan 'porez solidarnosti') i na isplatu dividendi dioničarima, proračun bi se u 2012. dodatno 'napunio' za 7,2 milijarde eura, a sljedeće godine za 13,3 milijardi. No čak i s tim mjerama, prognoze za rast BDP-a smanjene su na 0,3 posto za tekuću godinu, a na 1,2 za iduću. No tu je stratešku odluku i jedan od prvih važnijih poteza nove vlade posve nadglasao jedan drugi slučaj. Naime, jučer je policija pretraživala urede bivšeg predsjednika Nicolasa Sarkozyja , njegov dom u 16. arondismanu koji pripada supruzi Carli Bruni te odvjetnički ured u kojem bivši predsjednik ima vlasnički udio u sklopu istrage o nelegalnom financiranju predsjedničke kampanje 2007. Iako vijest naizgled ima sve atribute za prvorazrednu medijsku senzaciju, prvi rezultati pretrage ne daju ni približno dovoljno zahvalnog materijala. Kako je danas objavio AFP, ništa nije zaplijenjeno tijekom triju pretraga koje su se mogle odobriti tek nakon što je 15. lipnja Sarkozyju i službeno istekao predsjednički imunitet. Inače, 'afera Bettencourt', u kojoj se sumnjiči niz visoko pozicioniranih članova Sarkozyjeve stranke UMP za ilegalne donacije od većinskih dioničara L'Oréala, obitelji Bettencourt, traje već neko vrijeme, obilato zaokuplja francusku javnost, a zahvatila je već jedanaest osoba među kojima je i bivši ministar rada, Eric Woerth, koji je zbog optužbi o sukobu interesa bio prinuđen dati ostavku. Već od samog početka istrage, Sarkozyjevo ime redovito se spominje. Konkretno, istražitelje sada zanimaju dvije oveće sume, svaka od 400.000 eura, koje su podignute s računa drugog najvećeg bogatstva Francuske tijekom 2007. te jesu li iskorištene za ilegalno financiranje kampanje. Prema francuskom zakonu, tijekom kampanje najveća donacija fizičke osobe može iznositi 4.600 eura. Cilj istrage jest provjeriti podudarnost između službenog Sarkozyevog rasporeda i svjedočenja svjedoka, mahom osoblja Bettencourtovih, koji tvrde kako je predsjednik bio redoviti gost u rezidenciji Bettencourtovih u pariškom predgrađu Neuilly-sur-Seine. Njegov odvjetnik Thierry Herzog i danas potvrđuje tek jednu, 'kurtoaznu' posjetu domu Bettencourtovih tijekom protekle predsjedničke kampanje i tvrdi kako je 'fizički nemoguće' da su se ti susreti uistinu i desili. U nedostatku provjerenih informacija, dnevnik Le Parisien donio je Sarkozyjevu navodnu izjavu, prije no što je krenuo na odmor u Kanadu u ponedjeljak, u kojoj je poručio prijateljima da zna 'da dolaze po njega i da neće ništa naći', a izvori Libérationa navode da je samo pitanje vremena kada će ga sudac Jean-Michel Gentil pozvati na svjedočenje. Aktualni ministar unutarnjih poslova Manuel Valls zadovoljio se tek poslovičnom izjavom o neovisnosti rada institucija suda, no nije propustio dometnuti da Francuska sada prolazi kroz 'moralnu krizu' nakon Sarkozyjeva petogodišnjeg mandata.
