"This is not the Mediterranean Club," lawyer Jean-Michel Darrois declared last evening after visiting his client, Nicolas Sarkozy, in the Santé prison in Paris.

"Today he did some sports, he started writing his book. He is in a nine-square-meter cell and there is a lot of noise all the time," the lawyer said. He also added that Sarkozy had the opportunity to meet his wife, Carla Bruni, for the first time in the afternoon, in one of the three one-hour meetings they have a week.

"The first day in prison is terrible, but he coped," the lawyer concluded, writes Corriere della Sera.

The day for former President Sarkozy began at 9:37 a.m., when his Renault Espace car entered Montparnasse prison, the only penitentiary facility still located within the walls of Paris.

The prison, which has a maximum capacity of 657 people, currently houses 1,237 prisoners. The former president has not been placed in the "vulnerable prisoners" section, where public figures such as Bernard Tapie have previously been held, but has been isolated, not as an additional punishment, but to guarantee his safety and protect him from contact with other prisoners who could pose a risk.

Upon arrival, Sarkozy was greeted with unfriendly cheers from the prisoners: "Oh, welcome Sarkozy!", "It's Sarkozy!".

He was handed the prison's internal regulations and reminded of the reason for his detention: a conviction for "criminal collaboration" in the matter of Libyan financing of his 2007 electoral campaign.

Then, guards took his fingerprints, took a photograph, and assigned him a prisoner identification number, along with an internal prison ID card. Sarkozy handed over all his documents and personal belongings to a small safe, but was allowed to keep his wedding ring and watch.

Like every other prisoner, he received a “welcome package” that included soap, sheets, utensils, paper, and a pen.

Sarkozy was escorted to the cell, which has a toilet with shower, a kitchenette, a bed, a small table, a small television and, because cell phones are banned, a landline with 10 numbers pre-assigned by the prison administration, which has the right to monitor conversations.

On the advice of his lawyers, the former president brought along some sweaters to protect himself from the cold and earplugs. The most difficult part is expected to be the night, since, especially in the first phase of the sentence, the guards turn on the light every hour to check that the prisoner has not attempted suicide. It is also customary for the prisoners to loudly call out the name of the newcomer throughout the first night.

And given that Sarkozy, since his time as Interior Minister, was known for his tough approach to convicts, it is not surprising that he was not warmly received.
