Strauss-Kahn’s prosecutors may drop case
Prosecutors are set to ask a judge to dismiss all charges in the sexual assault case against former IMF director Dominique Strauss-Kahn at a court hearing on Tuesday.
According to the New York Post, the Manhattan district attorney’s office will file a motion recommending the case be dropped and laying out the chronology of events that led to that point.
Strauss-Kahn has been accused of trying to rape a hotel maid in New York, but he has always denied the charges.
The lawyer appearing for Nafissatou Diallo, the hotel maid, told the New York Times he does not think prosecutors would have requested to meet Diallo, unless they were planning to dismiss the charges.
