"IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn quits over sex charge

Dominique Strauss-Kahn was denied bail at a hearing on Monday


International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn has offered to resign following an alleged sexual assault of a hotel maid in New York.

In a statement, Mr Strauss-Kahn, 62, said he had already informed the executive board of his intention to step down "with immediate effect".

He again firmly denied the criminal charges against him.

Mr Strauss-Kahn - who is being held in New York's Rikers Island prison - is expected to make a new plea for bail."
