Karachi case: Sarkozy 'investigated over secrecy breach'
16:10, 10 January 2013
PARIS. January 10. KAZINFORM France's ex-President Nicolas Sarkozy is to be investigated over accusations of a breach of secrecy in an alleged corruption case, the "Karachi affair", the French agency AFP reports.
His office had said in 2011 that he was not named in any of the case documents.
Plaintiffs in the case say that was a violation of confidentiality.
The long-running investigation stems from the death of 11 French engineers in a bombing in Pakistan in 2002, which may have been linked to French bribes.
