Sarkozy’s bank account compromised by thieves

Thieves have made withdrawals from French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s bank account after obtaining his account number, the Journal du Dimanche newspaper reported yesterday

The President’s Office confirmed Sarkozy had filed complaints last month concerning the theft, which the newspaper quoted sources as saying involved only small amounts. The failure to apprehend the criminals “shows that the criminals weren’t amateurs,” wrote the newspaper.
