Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy will appeal his conviction for conspiring to secure illegal Libyan funding for his 2007 election campaign, with hearings set from 16 March to 3 June, the Paris appeal court said on Thursday (13 November).
Sarkozy was freed and walked out of jail this week after a court ruled he should not serve his prison sentence pending the appeal, contrary to the initial ruling.
He will now seek to overturn the five-year sentence imposed in September. He's always denied any wrongdoing.
"Truth will prevail. This is a fact that life teaches us," Sarkozy wrote on X after returning home.
Sarkozy was found guilty of conspiring to procure funds for his 2007 presidential campaign bid from late Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.
