The housekeeper behind the arrest, imprisonment and resignation of Dominique Strauss-Kahn has broken a two-month silence to give her version of the now-famous events which took place on Saturday, May 14 in Room 2806 of the Sofitel in New York.

Nafissatou Diallo, a 32-year-old single mother from Guinea, appeared on ABC's Good Morning America yesterday, 24 hours after Newsweek published an interview in which she recalled her disputed encounter with the former head of the International Monetary Fund. “As God is my witness, I am telling the truth,” she said.
