French Finance Minister Christine Lagarde was appointed this week
and will start work Tuesday. She replaces DSK who has been
embroiled in a sex scandal since May 14, 2011. However,
according to various reports, the case against him may crumble as
the prosecutors start doubting the credibility of Nafissatou Dialo,
the Sofitel Chambermaid who accused the ex-director of IMF.
According to the New York Times, a convicted drug dealer has been
sending cash to Mme Diallo's bank account, totalling $100,000 over
a few years. Futhermore, she was caught talking to somebody
on a recorder about how much money she stands to make from the DSK
case.
