Dominique Strauss-Kahn goes on trial for alleged pimping
Strauss-Kahn, 65, who settled a US civil case with chambermaid Nafissatou Diallo after criminal charges were dropped, risks as much as 10 years in jail and a fine of up to €1.5m if convicted in the French trial.
Investigating magistrates who sent Strauss-Kahn to trial with 13 others argue he knew he was dealing with prostitutes when taking part in sex parties in Paris, Lille, and Washington from 2008 to 2011, a judicial source said.
