6 Strauss-Kahn, Dominique
professor of economics, minister of economics in the government of Lionel Jospin, later appointed head of the IMF, and credited with very successful management of the post 2007 economic crisis. Popularly known as "DSK", Strauss-Kahn was widely tipped to win the French presidential election in 2012 as the candidate of the Socialist Party. But in May 2011, he experienced a total fall from grace after being accused in the USA or sexual assault on a hotel cleaner - a charge he strenuously denied. Photos of the handcuffed and dishevelled DSK being led by New York police caused outrage in France from DSK's friends and foes alike, since the publication of such photos of a person considered innocent until proved guilty is quite illegal under French privacy law. However in spite of DNA evidence of a sexual encounter, all charges against him were later dropped following evidence of inconsistencies in the allegations of the plaintif.Dictionnaire Français-Anglais.
