In relation to the head of the International Monetary Fund, Dominic Struss-Kan, suspected of abuse of authority, a new investigation related to the invitation to the MVF of a girl from France, who previously worked with Strouss-Kan, may be instituted, RIA Novosti reports.
In this case, we are talking about the 26-year-old Frenchwoman Emily Bae, who was undergoing an internship at the IMF.

A letter asking for to hire BAE to work was sent to the Department of the IMF personnel from the Stross-Kan office.
The internal investigation regarding the practice of BAE, conducted in April 2008, ended to no avail and the IMF leadership decided that "there was no favorite in this matter." However, this issue will be raised during the communication of Strauss-Kan and the lawyer specially hired by the IMF to investigate another case in which the head of the IMF is suspected of abuse of authority.
