The New York hotel maid who accuses former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn of attempting to rape her in a hotel suite has given her first interview.
Nafissatou Diallo told Newsweek magazine that she has told the truth about the incident on 14 May.
The move comes as authorities consider whether to drop charges against him amid doubts over her credibility.
The French politician, 62, who resigned as head of the IMF to defend himself, vigorously denies all the charges.
He has said that what happened with Ms Diallo was consensual, and his lawyers have described the maid's interview as "unseemly".
