Marković affair

A former police chief, Lucien Aimé-Blanc, who was pointed as being responsible for recovering the photos, stated that they had been planted by established Gaullist clans opposed to Pompidou.A heavy gambler who was often suspected of cheating, Marković was known for his high-class parties at which it was alleged he would set up secret cameras throughout the house, especially in the bedrooms.[3] While admitting that he and his wife had attended parties with Marković and Delon, Pompidou accused Louis Wallon and Henri Capitant of using the French espionage service SDECE to frame him.[2] After he nevertheless overcame the rumours and won the 1969 election, Pompidou appointed Alexandre de Marenches as the chief of the SDECE with instructions to reform it.Later, information proved that it was not Madame Pompidou in the photos but a prostitute who had been paid by a former police chief, Lucien Aimé-Blanc, with long connections to the SDECE.Aimé-Blanc claimed in his memoirs that an anonymous friend asked him to recruit a blonde-haired prostitute in her forties who was then used as Madame Pompidou's lookalike so she could be photographed in compromising positions with another woman.
