Christian Wulff, ex German president, was charged for taking a bribe of €720, he was later acquitted from the corruption charges.
The charges related specifically to some 720 euros ($990; £600) in hotel and entertainment costs allegedly paid by German film producer David Groenewold for Mr Wulff and his family during a visit to Oktoberfest in Munich in 2008.

In return, he was accused of having lobbied German companies to support Mr Groenewold's work. He had faced up to three years in jail, if convicted.
3 years for €720.

When will Somalia charge Ali Mahdi for the pollution/destruction of our waters with nuclear waste, President Abdiqasim stealing $300 million, Faroole stealing $35 million, Adde Muuse trying to steal Puntland oil, Omar Abdirashid trying to sell Somali oil to Kenya and Sheikh Sharif stealing the $30 million aid money from Qatar that was meant for the famine.
