Paris, Oct 18 (ANI): Former International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn is in yet another controversy, this time for allegedly taking help of a police chief to have an orgy in a Paris hotel.
The police chief, who was supposed to have guarded Strauss-Kahn had he became President of France, is also said to have accompanied prostitutes to New York to meet up with the controversial man when he was in charge of the International Monetary Fund, the Daily Mail reports.
The allegations related to Jean-Christophe Lagarde are not only embarrassing for Strauss-Kahn, but also point to wide-scale corruption at the heart of French political life.
The details emerged during an inquiry into an underage prostitute racket in northern France, which has already led to the arrests of five men, including a lawyer and businessman.
French judges are aware that Lagarde, a departmental commissioner in France's national police force, had discussed setting up a protection unit for Strauss-Kahn if he became President of France.
The paper quoted a Journal du Dimanche (JDD) newspaper report as saying that the illegal prostitute racket not only provided girls for luxury French hotels like the Carlton in Lille, but also ones in the U.S. They are thought to have been selected for Strauss-Kahn by Dominique Alderweireld, a 62-year-old 'pimp' nicknamed 'Dodo', who made a number of trips to see Strauss-Kahn in New York. He has since been arrested.
A prostitute has also told them that the pair organised an orgy in the spring of 2010 'in a duplex suite of a luxury central Paris hotel'.
Strauss-Kahn was recently cleared of charges of raping a French writer, though it was proved that he had sexual contact with the lady. (ANI)
