JERUSALEM – Former International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn will plead not guilty to sexual assault charges and will be acquitted, his lawyer told Israel’s Haaretz newspaper on Sunday.

In an interview with the daily, Benjamin Brafman said he was confident his client would be acquitted on charges of sexually assaulting a 32-year-old hotel maid in a New York hotel.

“He’ll plead not guilty and in the end he’ll be acquitted,” Brafman told Haaretz during a brief visit to Israel, where some of his family live.

“Nothing is certain, but from what I’ve discerned in the investigation, he will be acquitted… He has impressed me very much. Despite the circumstances, he’s doing well,” Brafman said.

Brafman is known in the United States for having taken on several high-profile legal cases, including the defense of Michael Jackson and rapper Sean Combs.
