Authorities Search Paris Apartment of IMF Chief Lagarde
French authorities search the Paris apartment of IMF chief Christine Lagarde on Wednesday. Officials are investigating Lagarde's involvement in the so-called "Tapie Affair" - a controversial 2008 arbitration payment to billionaire Bernard Tapie - a supporter of former French president Nicolas Sarkozy. Tapie had sued the government - after selling his stake in the sports company Adidas - to then state-owned bank Credit Lyonnais.
