French far-right leader Marine Le Pen refused to attend a summons by judges over allegations of misuse of European Union funds, her lawyer has told Reuters.
Lawyer Marcel Ceccaldi said Le Pen had told the judges she would not attend before the end of the presidential campaign, to be held in two stages in April and May, in which she is one of the leading candidates.
"Of course she won't go," Ceccaldi said on Friday, citing Le Pen's parliamentary immunity.
