French prosecutors launch investigation into Le Pen campaign financing in 2022
Paris, 10 July (Hibya) - As left-wing politicians in France continue to debate how to form a new government, French investigators have opened an inquiry into the financing of far-right leader Marine Le Pen's failed 2022 presidential election campaign against Emmanuel Macron.
The Paris prosecutor's office announced yesterday that an investigation into Le Pen's campaign financing was opened last week to investigate allegations of embezzlement, fraud, forgery, fraud and allegations that a candidate in the election campaign received a loan. No further details were given.
Le Pen and her party had previously denied allegations of campaign finance misconduct.
The preliminary investigation was opened after the CNCCFP, a national commission tasked with scrutinising campaign finance, alerted the prosecutor's office last year.
