　　据报道，希拉克一家已经在摩洛哥度假胜地马拉喀什附近的一块2500英亩的土地上建起了度假屋。这块土地十分隐蔽，大小相当于伦敦得里奇蒙德公园，但气候更加怡人。据称希拉克一家还将在当地再购置1500英亩的土地。rs238848.rs.hosteurope.de3 I; Q' E$ @' g

　　希拉克还拥有法国中部的一座小城堡以及在巴黎的一处公寓，但是居住在摩洛哥将给他带来诸多便利。首先，希拉克能够常常见到自己的大女儿劳伦斯，她由于厌食症长期以来在摩洛哥疗养。此外，摩洛哥政府对希拉克涉嫌的腐败指控表示同情，居住在摩洛哥可能使其躲避有关调查。; O2 u# l1 b, X9 V' i8 [8 B

　　希拉克此前一直努力与摩洛哥国王默罕默德六世建立友好关系。在希拉克一家前往摩洛哥度假时，默罕默德六世总是为他们支付账单，并赠送他们大量礼物。

SHOULD he fear prosecution for corruption when he leaves office in May, President Jacques Chirac can always withdraw to his bolthole in Morocco.

The Chiracs, it has emerged, have built a holiday home on 2,500 acres near Marrakesh, a hideaway roughly the size of Richmond Park in London but blessed with better weather. They are understood to be considering the purchase of an extra 1,500 acres.

They also have a small chateau in central France and a flat in Paris, but the advantages of spending more time in Morocco are multiple, not least the opportunity to see more of Laurence, the elder Chirac daughter. She suffers from anorexia, has survived various suicide attempts and lives under care for much of the year on the Moroccan coast.

Chirac has been careful to cultivate extremely friendly relations with King Mohammed VI, or “M6” as they call him in France, who always picks up the bill and showers Chirac with gifts whenever he and his wife Bernadette holiday at the Gazelle d’Or, a luxury hotel near Taroudant.

Presidential immunity has protected Chirac until now from facing questions about illicit fundraising schemes when he was mayor of Paris and the town hall was awash with cash.

In what was interpreted as an effort to protect his retirement from judicial prying, the president has appointed three key political allies to judicial posts. Jean-Louis Debré, former speaker of the National Assembly and the president’s leading cheerleader, is to become president of the powerful constitutional council.

One has described seeing Chirac reaching into a chest and pulling out the equivalent of £50,000 in cash to help the reelection effort of a New Caledonian political ally.
