A French court found former President Nicolas Sarkozy guilty on Monday of trying to bribe a judge and influence peddling.
He was sentenced to three years in prison, including two years suspended.
Sarkozy, who led France from 2007 to 2012, was accused of offering to help a judge obtain a senior job in Monaco in exchange for inside information on an inquiry into his campaign finances.
