Former French president Nicolas Sarkozy was found not guilty of receiving illegal campaign financing from late Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi for his successful 2007 presidential bid, but was pronounced guilty of criminal conspiracy in the same case. Sarkozy was acquitted by a Paris court of all other charges, including passive corruption. The court was now set to explain its findings and announce sentencing. FRANCE 24's Claire Paccalin has more from the Paris court.
