A year after the scandal broke out, the former socialist presidential frontrunner accused the maid, Nafissatou Diallo, of 'knowingly and intentionally making a false report to law-enforcement authorities" that cost him his job, New York Post reported.
A judge had earlier dismissed all charges against Strauss-Kahn, who was accused of forcing the maid into a sex act at a luxury Manhattan hotel, but her lawyers had filed an appeal to a higher court seeking a special prosecutor, the report added.
Strauss Khan argued that the stimulus measures adopted by countries to combat the global crisis should be withdrawn only when the economic recovery has taken hold and unemployment is set to decline.
