On September 21, 2009 the trial of former Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin of France, who is charged with plotting to damage the name of his former opponent, the current president of France, Nicolas Sarkozy has started. De Villepin allegedly leaked a fake list with Clearstream clients, including Sarkozy.
Clearstream is a Luxembourg-based securities trading house. The trial is called the "Trial of the Century", and could lead to a five year imprisonment for Villepin.http://news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-world/france-braces-for-trial-of-the-decade-20090914-fn3c.htmlhttp://www.france24.com/en/20090921-focus-france-politics-finance-scandal-clearstream-luxembourg-bank-trial-sarkozy-villepinClearwater Scandal
In 2004, both Dominique de Villepin and Nicolas Sarkozy were running for president in France.
A list showed up that claimed to list clients with secret bankaccounts with Luxembourg-based securities trading house, Clearstream. Sarkozy was on the list. Villepin had gotten his hands on this list, but instead of turning it over to the authorities, he asked a retired general to investigate it. It was proven to be a fake, but by that time it had leaked.
