Jérôme Cahuzac
Jérôme Cahuzac is a French politician and former minister who gained notoriety for his involvement in a financial scandal involving tax fraud. He served as the Minister of Health and later as the Minister of Budget in the French government, but his political career was marred by allegations that he held a secret bank account in Switzerland to evade taxes.
