DSK questioned by French police about Banon’s rape accusations
After the rape charges against Dominique Strauss-Kahn were dropped in New York, he returned to France to more questioning about another potential rape, this one of Tristane Banon. Banon is claiming she was raped by DSK when she was interviewing him for her book in 2003.
After the investigation, prosecutors will decide if they are going to trial. You can read more about her account of the rape here.
It will be interesting to see what “credibility” questions come up this time since she is a French citizen and, according to the BBC, is the daughter of Socialist party local councillor Anne Mansouret and god-daughter of DSK’s second wife Brigitte Guillemette.
