CLEAN: Villepin awaits Clearstream verdict
A French court hands down a verdict on Thursday in the trial of former prime minister Dominique de Villepin -- a decision that could seal the political fate of one of President Nicolas Sarkozy's fiercest foes. Villepin is accused of conspiring in 2004 to torpedo Sarkozy's presidential bid with falsified documents, at a time when the two men were manoeuvring to succeed president Jacques Chirac. For Villepin, the so-called Clearstream affair is the darkest chapter in what has, in recent years, been a chequered political career. Paris, France (Footage by AFPTV via Getty Images)
