Anticor filed a complaint on April 7 against Nicolas Sarkozy, Claude Guéant and the publicist François de La Brosse. The complaint, revealed by the daily Le Monde, targets the former head of state, his former right-hand man and former Qatari Prime Minister Hamad Ben Jassem al-Thani.

Anticor wants these elements to be attached to the judicial investigation into the conditions under which FIFA awarded Qatar the organization of the World Cup in 2010.
