Sarkozy, probably not, though he was Budget Minister at the time. The PM was Edouard Balladur, who is saying if anyone has evidence they should come forward...

Sarkozy was Budget minister and financial director of Balladur's campaign. The whole point of the scheme was to finance Balladur's campaign.

This is much graver than any excessive expenses, yet in France only readers of Canard Enchaîné and Libération have heard about it. That's why it can't hurt Sarko : there's no press left worthy of the name.

(And Charles Millon, Defense Minister from '95 to 97 has confirmed he had suspended the bakchich...)
