The New York hotel maid accusing IMF head Dominique Strauss-Kahn of sexual assault has picked him out of a line-up, police revealed tonight.A spokesman for the New York Police Department said that Strauss-Kahn and five men of a similar height, weight and appearance were asked to stand on parade whilst the woman stood the other side of a one-way mirror. The victim said: 'That's him' in a 'clear confident voice,' the spokesman said. The potential French presidential candidate is set to appear in court this evening to answer to charges including attempted rape. She told police she was asked to clean the spacious $3,000-a-night suite, which she was told was empty. She then alleges Strauss-Kahn emerged naked from a bathroom, chased her down a hallway, pulled her into a bedroom and began sexually assaulting her, at one point attempting to force her to perform oral sex. 'The housekeeper went into the room and Mr Strauss-Kahn emerged from bathroom naked,' an NYPD spokesman said. 'He grabbed the woman and pulled her into the bedroom and locked the door and then attempted to sexually assault her. 'She managed to get free but he pulled her back, pulled off her trousers and sexually assaulted her. 'The woman managed again to get away and out the door and went to security and told the what happened. The victim of the alleged sex assault is a single mother and 'a sweet lady', a friend said. The African American lady, who is thought to be originally from Ghana, is 'reserved and quiet', the friend claimed. 'She has been at the hotel for about four years and is well liked - I think she is a single mum and just does her work quietly and goes home. Also: There were also allegation from a young french author, Tristane Banon, who described how Strauss-Kahn had forcefully tried to seduce her, allegedly leaving her to having fight him off physically. Gotta take a look at young Tristane's pic. What a dirty old perv. Posted by: Zebulon Thranter9685 2011-05-16 |
