Mitterrand’s Son Held for Questioning

French judges have jailed Jean-Christophe Mitterrand, son and onetime African affairs advisor to the late President Francois Mitterrand, in a widening investigation of suspected illegal arms sales to Angola, judicial sources said. Jean-Christophe Mitterrand was sent to the forbidding Sante prison in Paris after testifying for hours before two investigating magistrates, they said. The judges told him he was being held while they investigated him on suspicion of influence peddling, complicity in arms trafficking and abuse of confidence and company funds.
