A French court on Thursday found former justice minister Michel Mercier guilty of embezzlement in a fake jobs scheme he ran for the benefit of family

Mercier, 75, who served under former president Nicolas Sarkozy between 2010 and 2012, claimed tens of thousands of euros for his wife and daughter for parliamentary jobs they never carried out.Mercier gave"personal gain precedence over the public good", the court said in its verdict, calling Mercier's actions"serious".

During that time, Delphine Mercier was living in London and did not set foot in the French Senate, but her father claimed she was acting as his"cultural advisor".Joelle Mercier, meanwhile, claimed during the trial that she had served as her husband's representative at village fairs and funerals. Mercier had based part of his defence on his rural roots, pitting his"common sense" against the"Parisians" of the national financial crimes unit PNF.

The move came in reaction to a public outcry over a high-profile case involving former right-wing prime minister Francois Fillon, who was found guilty of providing a fake parliamentary assistant job to his wife that saw her paid hundreds of thousands of euros in public funds.
