Strauss-Kahn returns to France
Former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn has arrived in the French capital Paris from the US.
Mr Strauss-Kahn and his wife Anne Sinclair landed at Charles de Gaulle airport at 07:05 (05:05 GMT) on board an Air France flight, BBC said.
They have been in New York since his arrest in May on sex assault charges, which were dropped last month.
The 62-year-old, once seen as a possible French presidential contender, denied the allegations.
Mr Strauss-Kahn, who resigned in the days after his arrest, had his passport returned last month.
Hotel maid Nafissatou Diallo, who accused Mr Strauss-Kahn of trying to rape her in his hotel room, is pressing her claims in a civil lawsuit.
