The New York Times is reporting that the criminal case against ex-IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn, accused of sexually assaulting a New York hotel maid, is on the verge of collapsing.
Citing two unnamed law enforcement officials close to the case, the Times said prosecutors did not believe much of the story told by the French politician's accuser -- a Guinea-born hotel maid -- and that she had repeatedly lied to them since the May 14 alleged attack.
