Former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn has denied committing any crime, during testimony at his trial on charges of pimping in northern France.
He told the court in Lille that he had taken part in only rare orgies, saying there had been no "wild activity".
Mr Strauss-Kahn is accused of helping procure sex workers for a prostitution ring based at a hotel in Lille.
The one-time potential candidate for the French presidency has said he did not know the women were prostitutes.
Although using prostitutes is not illegal in France, supplying them or assisting in supplying them is. Prosecutors have been quoted as saying Mr Strauss-Khan, 65, played a pivotal role in facilitating the orgies, describing him as the "party king".
If found guilty, Mr Strauss-Kahn could face up to 10 years in jail and a €1.5m (£1.13m) fine.
