Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy has become the first ex-leader since the Second World War to go to jail. He will serve a five-year sentence for using funds from Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi to finance his 2007 campaign.
However, Sarkozy maintains his innocence and has appealed the conviction. He is held in isolation at La Santé prison for safety. He called his imprisonment a crushing price and a humiliation for France.
