France's former president Nicolas Sarkozy (R) shakes hands with a police officer as he leaves his residence to present himself to La Sante Prison for incarceration on a five-year prison sentence after being convicted of criminal conspiracy over a plan for late Libyan dictator Moamer Kadhafi to fund his 2007 electoral campaign, in Paris, on October 21, 2025. Nicolas Sarkozy, who has faced a flurry of legal woes since losing re-election in 2012, is to be jailed on October 21, 2025, over a scheme to acquire Libyan funding for his successful 2007 presidential run, becoming the first former head of a European Union country to serve time behind bars. The former French right-wing leader has appealed the verdict and denounced an "injustice". (Photo by JULIEN DE ROSA / AFP)
