Ex IMF boss released from jail

The former head of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has been released from a New York City jail after posting $1m (£618,000) cash bail.
Dominique Strauss-Kahn, who denies charges of attempting to rape a hotel maid, is to be kept in home detention at a temporary location in Manhattan.
He had earlier agreed to be confined to a luxury flat but residents there refused to accept him, reports said.
He is to be kept under 24-hour guard and will wear a monitoring bracelet.
He was released into the custody of a security firm with ties to prosecutors, Reuters news agency reported.
Strauss-Kahn is charged with seven counts including four felony charges – two of criminal sexual acts, one of attempted rape and one of sexual abuse – plus three misdemeanour offences, including unlawful imprisonment.
His accuser is a 32-year-old widow originally from Guinea in west Africa who reportedly told authorities Mr Strauss-Kahn accosted her after she entered his hotel room to clean it.
Strauss-Kahn, 62, denies the allegations and on 6 June is set to enter a formal plea.
He spent four nights at the notorious Rikers Island jail in New York City since his arrest on Saturday over the alleged incident at the Sofitel hotel. (BBC)
