French police investigating a financial scandal swirling around Nicolas Sarkozy's government have raided the home of L'Oreal heiress Lillian Bettencourt. France's richest woman has been accused of providing 'envelopes full of cash' to President Sarkozy and his ruling UMP Party. The authorities are, in turn, accused of having turned a blind eye to Mrs Bettencourt avoiding paying tax on her vast fortune.
