On continue à s'intéresser au sort de DSK. Il y a toujours les risques d'une poursuite au civil...
"He may pay still more. While his wife, the American-born daughter of a wealthy art dealer, is extremely rich, Mr. Strauss-Kahn is facing one and possibly two civil suits, one brought by Ms. Diallo in New York and one that is expected to be brought by Ms. Banon.
Ms. Diallo’s lawyer, Kenneth P. Thompson, suggested that the French prosecutors were influenced by the decision by the Manhattan district attorney, Cyrus R. Vance Jr., to drop his case.
“The prosecutors in Paris must have felt emboldened by the failure of the Manhattan District Attorney to hold Mr. Strauss-Kahn accountable for his actions here in New York, which we look forward to doing in our civil case,” Mr. Thompson said in an e-mail.
There was little chance Mr. Strauss-Kahn would have been convicted in the French criminal case or served time in jail, but his political career has been badly damaged by the charges, and the French seem almost bored now with him and the case.
“The sword of Damocles has been lifted” from him in terms of prosecution, said Bruno Jeudy, the political editor of Le Journal du Dimanche, a weekly newspaper. “Will it change anything? No, not in the immediate future.”
Mr. Strauss-Kahn “is out of the political film,” Mr. Jeudy said, describing the television interview as a kind of funeral. “We would need very serious economic trouble to request his help.” As for ordinary people, he said, “the French feel very far from this now” and ambivalent about Ms. Banon, now 32, who has garnered a lot of publicity and has just published a book, “The Hypocrites’ Ball,” describing her experiences with Mr. Strauss-Kahn and afterward."
