Former President Sentenced To Prison.
OnyxNews Nigeria quotes CNN report stating that a French court on Monday sentenced former President of France, Nicolas Sarkozy to three years in prison for corruption and influence peddling, but suspended two years of the sentence.
The 66-year-old French President from 2007 to 2012, was found guilty of trying to illegally obtain information from a senior magistrate in 2014 about an ongoing investigation into his campaign finances.
The judge said Sarkozy did not need to serve time in jail. He could serve the sentence by wearing an electronic bracelet at home.
