French sex attack accuser to confront Strauss-Kahn


The former head of the IMF, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, is to appear face to face with a French writer who accuses him of trying to rape her in 2003.

He reportedly admits making "an advance" on Tristane Banon but denies violence and is suing for slander.

The two will face each other in front of prosecutors investigating the allegations made by Ms Banon in June.

At the time, Mr Strauss-Kahn faced charges of a raping a hotel maid in New York - that case was later dropped.

Confirming that a meeting would be held, the Paris prosecutor's office did not say when it would take place.

Both parties have been interviewed by police over the alleged incident.
'Like a rutting chimpanzee'

Ms Banon, 32, told a TV interviewer this week she was keen to confront her alleged abuser in front of police investigators to test each other's claims.
