Disgraced former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn, who partly ran an investment company that is being sued for alleged fraud, will file a suit next week for defamation, his lawyer Jean Veil said on Saturday.
The investigation was opened on July 28 after a former shareholder in a now-defunct Luxembourg-based firm, LSK, lodged a formal complaint.
