Former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn, who faces charges of sexual assault, has hired an all-male crew to clean up the luxury townhouse where he spends his house arrest, the New York Post reported.
New York Post reporters said they have spotted "blue-collar dudes who look like plumbers" doing household tasks in and around the house. They were seen sweeping the litter off the sidewalk, polishing windows and taking out garbage.
Strauss-Kahn, 62, was arrested last in mid-May at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport on board a plane to Paris. He is charged with sexually assaulting a maid at the Sofitel hotel near Manhattan's Times Square. He pleaded not guilty to all charges.
The former IMF head spent several days in the Rikers Island prison before a judge released him on a $1 million cash bail, and placed him under 24-hour house arrest.
Strauss-Kahn is staying with his wife, well-known French journalist Anne Sinclair, and daughter Camille at a $50,000-a-month TriBeCa townhouse.
