      <title>Strauss-Kahn relocates house arrest to luxury pad</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img class="bd1 bdstand align-left" title="strauss" src="http://www.aaj.tv/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/strauss.jpg" alt="" width="235" height="155" /&gt;Dominique Strauss-Kahn on Wednesday switched his place of house arrest to a luxury pad said to boast everything from roof access to home theater in one of Manhattan's trendiest districts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The former head of the International Monetary Fund, who is awaiting trial on charges that he sexually assaulted a New York hotel maid, is not allowed under the terms of his $6 million bail to leave home.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But at his staggeringly cushy new digs in the Tribeca neighborhood, he'd be forgiven for not wanting to.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to a real estate listing the townhouse at 153 Franklin Street has four bedrooms, a jet tub and waterfall shower, a movie theater and other VIP trappings.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Strauss-Kahn, who until his arrest May 14 was one of the world's most influential individuals, has seen a dizzying fall in the last week and a half.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Marched out in handcuffs before the media, described by prosecutors in court as a violent sex offender, and forced to spend several nights in New York's tough Rikers Island jail, the man until now seen as a potential next French president has seen the rough side of life.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now, thanks to his wealthy wife Anne Sinclair, he'll be able to wait for his June 6 court appearance -- where he is expected to enter a plea of not guilty -- in serious comfort.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A listing on townrealestate.com shows the house was recently put on the market for nearly $14 million. It is not know who owns the house now or how much Strauss-Kahn is now paying in rent.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Features pictured on the site include the theater with six identical movie-house-style chairs, an ultra-modern staircase and a main bedroom with a leopard print rug over a low double bed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The fine living will come with serious restrictions.&lt;/p&gt;
