Sarkozy questioned a second day over allegations of Libyan funding
Former French President, Nicolas Sarkozy is in custody for a second day over allegations of Libyan funding of the 2007 election campaign.
After a short night at home, the 63 year old returned to the anti-corruption office of Nanterre, west of Paris.
This custody should last a maximum of 48 hours, before leading to a release or an indictment, but it can also be presented to a judge for a new summons.
The judges have been investigating this case for 5 years.
His party the Republicans say they're unhappy with the situation.
Nadine Morano, European Deputy, Les R'epublicains, said, "He will have a dismissal, and again he will be dirty, but still once when it is whitewashed there will only be small lines of it in the ".
Annie Genevard, European deputy, Les R'epublicains said, "``Eleven years is very long without ever being able to establish the facts. Which would argue in favor, all the same, of being insisistent rather than firece."
Yesterday, Sarkozy's former interior minister appeared in an open hearing.
As Brice Hortefeux left late Tuesday night, he tweeted, "the clarifications made must allow to close a succession of errors and lies".
The former president has dismissed the Libya allegations of receiving money from the dictatorial regime of Kahdafi, as 'grotesque' and a 'crude manipulation'.
