Sarkozy hit by claims ex-wife was given fake €3,000-a-month job

The satirical newspaper Le Canard Enchainé said Cécilia Sarkozy, as she was then, was paid nearly €3,100 a month to do just under 76 hours’ work. Le Canard said it could find no evidence she had done any work.
“Not one article, not the slightest report, not a single one of the numerous books about the ex-first lady mentions her job as parliamentary assistant to the Puteaux MP,” the newspaper wrote.
Nicolas Sarkozy’s entourage do not deny Cécilia Sarkozy was employed as a parliamentary assistant, but have vehemently denied accusations the job was “fictitious”.
“Cécilia Sarkozy’s professional contribution throughout Nicolas Sarkozy’s political life from 1988 to 2007 is well known publicly, as the numerous press articles published on the subject prove. She was notably very involved at Neuilly-sur-Seine [where Sarkozy was mayor] and more widely in the Hauts-de-Seine constituency where her husband was the MP,” a member of Sarkozy’s team told French media.
