Strauss-Kahn – IMF head<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The 32-year-old African-American woman allegedly sexually assaulted by the Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), Dominique Strauss-Kahn is thought to be originally from Ghana, the Daily Mail, a British publication has said.<\/p>\n

The report identifies her as a single mother who it added has been described by a friend as\u00a0 \u2018a sweet lady\u2019.<\/p>\n

The friend cited by the publication says the woman is \u2018reserved and quiet\u2019.<\/p>\n

According to the report she has been working at the hotel for about four years. \u201cAnd she is well liked\u201d, the friend reportedly told the Mail.<\/p>\n

Reports on Sunday say the woman told New York that she was asked to clean the spacious $3,000-a-night suite where Strauss-Kahn was staying. She was told it was empty.<\/p>\n

She then alleges that Strauss-Kahn emerged naked from a bathroom, chased her down a hallway, pulled her into a bedroom and began sexually assaulting her, at one point attempting to force her to perform oral sex, the reports say.<\/p>\n

She however, managed to escape, according to the reports and told her story to hotel staff who called the police.<\/p>\n

Strauss-Kahn, the police said appeared to have \u201cleft the hotel in a hurry\u201d, because he left behind his mobile phone and some personal belongings.<\/p>\n

Police pulled him out of an Air France plane due to fly to Europe and arrested him.<\/p>\n

A New York Police spokesman cited by the media said that Strauss-Kahn has been charged with attempted rape, carrying out a criminal sex act and unlawful imprisonment.<\/p>\n

The 62-year-old Strauss-Kahn\u00a0 now faces sex assault charges in a New York court.<\/p>\n
