Paris, July 19 (ANI): The mother of the French writer who claimed Dominique Strauss-Kahn attacked her, has revealed that she had a 'consensual but brutal' sexual encounter of her own with the former IMF chief.
Anne Mansouret claimed she had the sexual encounter around three years before her journalist daughter, Tristane Banon's, alleged rape.
Mansouret, who was questioned by investigators, told a French news magazine that she kept quiet about her own ordeal until 2003, when Banon first claimed she was attacked by the then-Socialist lawmaker in a Paris apartment.
Mansouret, a senior official in the same Socialist Party, advised Banon against going to the police, but she also confided in a close friend, Brigitte Guillemette, who was Strauss-Kahn's second ex-wife.
According to Mansouret, Guillemette confronted her ex-husband, during which he confessed, that he slept with Mansouret, News.com.au reports.
"I don't know what got into me. I slept with the mother. I blew a fuse when I saw the daughter," he said.
Mansouret also said that when she later met Strauss-Kahn at a bar, he apologized for his behaviour, saying he did not intend to harm her daughter.
However, he seemed untroubled about the possibility of a rape complaint being filed, she said.
Strauss-Kahn is currently on bail in the US on charges that he raped a New York hotel maid May 14. (ANI)
