What were the central allegations in the "Libyan affair", and how does the verdict address them?

The case centered on allegations that Sarkozy's 2007 campaign received illegal funding from Muammar Gaddafi's regime. The court found sufficient evidence to convict him of criminal conspiracy but rejected claims of direct corruption and illegal campaign financing, indicating a lack of evidence for a direct link between Libyan funds and the campaign's finances.
