PARIS, July 4 French writer Tristane Banon will
file a legal complaint on Tuesday over an alleged rape attempt
by former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn in 2002, her lawyer
told Reuters.
David Koubbi, Banon's attorney, said the complaint would
relate to an incident that took place when she went to interview
Strauss-Kahn in an apartment in Paris. She was 22 at the time
and has already publicly discussed the incident.
"Tristane Banon will file a complaint on Tuesday for
attempted rape in Paris," Koubbi said.
