Frenchwoman Accuses Strauss-Kahn Of Attempted Rape
Again!? Strauss-Kahn Faces New Rape Charges
PARIS — The lawyer for a French novelist says she will file a lawsuit accusing former International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn of attempted rape.
Lawyer David Koubbi told The Associated Press that Tristane Banon will file the suit Tuesday in Paris.
Banon has described an encounter several years ago in which Strauss-Kahn allegedly assaulted her.
Strauss-Kahn was arrested in New York in May on charges that he tried to rape a hotel maid. Strauss-Kahn, who denied wrongdoing, was released without bail last week after questions emerged about the maid’s credibility.
Koubbi had said in the past that they would not file a lawsuit until the American trial was finished. He said Monday that they had decided to move forward now instead of waiting.
