There Strauss-Kahn is said to have tried to get her a visa for her to remain
in the US,
according to a legal source close to the case.
This would have ramifications on Strauss-Kahn’s defence as it would prove he
was assisting a prostitute in her work – something which is illegal in
France.
The allegation that an IMF chief was trying to get visas for prostitutes would
also create a huge scandal.
The woman, who has not been named, is said to have documentary evidence,
including pictures of her with Strauss-Kahn.
Strauss-Kahn admits taking part in orgies and said he had an “uninhibited
sex life”, but that he “never paid a centime” for it. “I
have a horror of prostitutes and pimping,” he said.
Strauss-Kahn, a leading member of the French Socialist Party who wanted to run
for President this year, resigned
from the IMF last May after being accused of raping Nafissatou
Diallo, a 32-year-old chambermaid in a New York hotel. The case later
collapsed.
