FRANCE-POLITICS-TRIAL-CLEARSTREAM
(FILES) - This picture taken on June 2, 2006 at the financial investigation unit in Paris shows Paul-Albert Iweins, the lawyer of former EADS executive, Jean-Louis Gergorin who is one of the five defendants in the so-called "Clearstream affair" and an ally of former French Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin, speaking to journalists. Villepin lied to "protect" former French president Jacques Chirac, said Iweins, in his defence plea, on October 23, 2009. Villepin is suspected of orchestrating a leak in 2004 of a faked list of account holders at the Clearstream bank, which included French president Nicolas Sarkozy's name. Two European defence company (EADS) executives, Gergorin and research chief Imad Lahoud, also face charges along with journalist Denis Robert, who broke the story, and accountant Florian Bourges, accused of stealing the lists from Clearstream.
