    Default Report: Gadhafi gave to Sarkozy's 2007 campaign

    (CNN) -- The campaign of French presidential front-runner Francois Hollande called for a criminal investigation into President Nicolas Sarkozy after a media report Saturday accused the president of taking 50 million euros ($66.3 million) for his 2007 campaign from then-Libyan strongman Moammar Gadhafi.
    Mediapart, a French online magazine, claimed in its report to have a Gadhafi government document, detailing an agreement to fund the campaign. The alleged document, dated December 10, 2006, states that then-Libyan intelligence chief Moussa Koussa authorized secret payments to Sarkozy through an intermediary, Mediapart reports.
    CNN was not immediately able to confirm the authenticity of the published document.
    Sarkozy has dismissed the allegation as "grotesque."
    During a television interview aired by TF1 last month, Sarkozy addressed the accusations after they surfaced on the Internet: "If (Gadhafi) had funded (my campaign), frankly, I would not have been very grateful," he said.

    Must have been a great intelligence chief donating money to the one candidate that bombed Libya.

    What a timely story, right before the election. For sure Sarkozy will now lose the election.

    If you think that's some story, then you should look at Sarkozy's friends and their little business deals. Very busy man, Sarkozy.
