Summary :

Former Sarthe MP François Fillon is accused of having paid his wife Penelope and two of his children for tasks of parliamentary assistant that they did not perform. The Fillon affair, revealed in January 2017 while he was leading the polls, led to his defeat in the first round of the presidential election and his withdrawal from political life.
