Dominique Strauss-Kahn questioned by police

February 21, 2012

Former International Monetary Fund head Dominique Strauss-Kahn is being questioned by French police as a suspect in a prostitution ring inquiry.

Mr. Strauss-Kahn, once a front-runner for the French presidency, is being held in custody at a police station in northern France.

Police have questioned a number of prostitutes who have admitted to having sex with Mr Strauss-Kahn.

However, he insists he did not know that the women were prostitutes.
