Decision on Strauss-Kahn charges delayed
LILLE: A French court has delayed a decision on whether to drop pimping charges against former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn until December 19, prosecutors said on Wednesday.

The appeals court in the northern town of Douai had been expected to rule Wednesday on a request from Strauss-Kahn's lawyers to stop a judicial inquiry into claims that he and associates arranged sex parties with prostitutes.
