Former French President Jacques Chirac will meet before September 15 judges investigating a graft case of fake jobs allegedly involving members of his party during his time as Paris mayor, his lawyer said on Tuesday. Chirac will appear as an ‘assisted witness’. This means he could later become the subject of a “formal investigation” if new evidence comes to light. “He said ‘yes’ because he is responsible, he is a citizen like any other for the period that goes up until 1995. He will respond to all the questions in all the cases which concern him,” Veil said on Europe 1 radio.
