Prosecutor Seeks to Dismiss Charges Against Strauss-Kahn
Prosecutors in the office of Cyrus R. Vance Jr., the Manhattan district attorney, have filed papers officially requesting that all charges against Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the former head of the International Monetary Fund, be dropped.
The papers, known as a dismissal on recommendation, were filed at 3:20 p.m. in Manhattan Supreme Court.
At about the same time, the lawyer for the hotel housekeeper who accused Mr. Strauss-Kahn of sexual assault emerged from a brief meeting with prosecutors Monday afternoon to offer harsh criticism of Mr. Vance.
