Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy has gone to the Paris prison where he will be serving a 5-year prison sentence. He was found guilty of seeking to acquire funding from Muammar Kadhafi’s Libya for the campaign that saw him elected. He is only the third French leader in History to go to prison, and the first since World War 2. FRANCE 24’s Philip Turle looks into what makes this decision historic.
