 | | D.S.K.: Resignation was a moral obligation to me. It was from my own free will that I decided to face judicial investigation as a normal citizen and not as a member of the Cabinet. | | | Last week a Paris judge acquitted the 52-year-old lawyer of document forgery, the last in a series of charges that prompted his resignation from the government of Socialist Prime Minister Lionel Jospin in November 1999. | | | Loath to become a political handicap to Jospin and his colleagues, D.S.K. resigned in disgrace, vowing to prove his innocence. |
