Strauss-Kahn questioned over vice ring
FORMER International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn was questioned yesterday by French police investigating a suspected prostitution ring.

Police are probing a suspected prostitution ring in France and Belgium that has implicated police and other officials.
They have questioned prostitutes who said they had sex with Strauss-Kahn during 2010 and 2011 at a luxury hotel in Paris, a restaurant in the French capital and in Washington, DC. Strauss-Kahn lived in the US capital while head of the IMF, before resigning in May.
Two men with ties to Strauss-Kahn have been put under preliminary investigation in France on charges including organizing a prostitution ring and misuse of corporate funds.
Investigators are seeking to discover if prostitutes were paid using corporate funds from a French construction company.
It is Strauss-Kahn's latest run-in with police over alleged sexual misconduct.
Strauss-Kahn was charged by New York police in May with making a hotel maid perform oral sex. Prosecutors dropped the case but the woman is pursuing her claims in a lawsuit.
And last October, French prosecutors refused to pursue a rape allegation by young French writer Tristane Banonof.
