Dominique Strauss-Kahn and the hotel maid who accused him of rape have reportedly reached a deal to settle her lawsuit.

The details of the agreement have not been made public.

The former head of the International Monetary Fund was arrested in May of last year and charged with sexually assaulting Nafissatou Diallo, a maid at the Sofitel Hotel, but Manhattan prosecutors dropped the charges after Diallo's credibility was questioned.

The case led Strauss-Kahn to resign from the IMF and drop his bid for the presidency in France.

He remains under investigation in France for his alleged involvement in a prostitution ring.
