Dominique Strauss-Kahn bail in doubt
Dominique Strauss-Kahn's $1 million bail was in doubt on Friday night, after managers of a luxury Manhattan apartment building appeared to back out of a deal for him to live there under house arrest.
Mr Strauss-Kahn won release from Rikers Island prison after a judge was told his wife, Anne Sinclair, had rented a property where he could be placed under 24-hour armed guard and video surveillance.
It is thought to have been at the Bristol Plaza, where condominiums are listed for up to $23.5 million (£14.4 million). Boasting it is "better than a hotel", its owners offer guests perks including a "daily maid service".
Yet the building's management appeared to disown the arrangement on Friday after discovering why their new 62-year-old tenants were planning an extended stay away from France.
