Know 10 big sex scandals involving world leaders

New Delhi: There have been many sex scandals involving world figures since ages. In recent times, many of the world leaders have been found involved either in extramarital sex or in sordid sex scandals. We have compiled here a list of 10 such sex scandals involving world leaders: 1. Francois Hollande The latest in the list is the French President, Francois Hollande involved in an affair with an actress. A celebrity magazine published his photographs crossing Paris on the back of a scooter apparently to meet the 41 year old actress Julie Gayet in her apartment. The sex scandal took a twist when it was found that the apartment used for the president's alleged secret meetings with Gayet was linked to the Corsican mafia. 2. Francois Mitterand Former French president Francois Mitterand (already married) was leading a double life, with mistress Anne Pingeot for more than 20 years who had borne him a daughter as well. 3. Silvio Berlusconi He was the most colourful prime minister Italy ever had. A media tycoon,Silvio Berlusconi served as Prime Minister for three terms. He had paid for sex with a minor, 17-year-old Moroccan belly dancer Karima El Mahroug alias Ruby. He was also accused of organizing wild parties that involved lavish catered affairs that would culminate in group sex between male and female invited guests. He is also accused of abusing the power of his office to secure Ruby's release after she was arrested in May 2010 by Milan police. 4. Muammar al –Gadaffi For the former Libyan dictator Muammar al Gaddafi, sex scandal would be a mild phrase. He was a stud, a mass murderer, a meglomaniac and a psycho, all rolled into one. He made headlines not only for his villainous dictatorship but also for other wrong reasons: Keeping a harem of virgin bodyguards, taking lavish vacations with Italian "models," paying off political opponents with prostitutes. 5. Idi Amin For Idi Amin too, sex scandal would be a laughable phrase. He was even a cannibal and also claimed he had a hot line to God. This military leader and President of Uganda, was known for polygamy, keeping concubines, and sexual depravity. Amin married no less than 6 times, kept over 50 mistresses outside his marriages and fathered between 35 and 45 children.Apparently he ate Jaffa oranges like there was no tomorrow, believing that they would act like Viagra for him.In one incident, he started businesses in his the names of three of his wives, and then divorced them publicly on state-run radio, arguing that a woman running a business is a violation of Islamic Law. 6. Kim Jong Il The former Supreme leader of North Korea, was known for keeping entourage of women. The women were selected for their looks and sexual compliance. Known as Gippeumjo in Korean — meaning ‘Pleasure Brigade' or ‘Joy Division', the unfortunates selected for these duties must be less than 5ft 2in tall.According to defectors, the women were checked for scars and must be virgins. They were given six months' training in sexual techniques, and write a pledge of allegiance in blood before they were interviewed by the Dear Leader himself.They were then split into three groups: the ‘happiness team', who were responsible for his massages; the ‘satisfaction team', who provided sexual services; and the ‘gamujo team', who sang and danced.7. Moshe Katsav The former President of Israel was convicted by the court for seven years imprisonment for charges of rape, sexual harassment, breach of trust, obstruction of justice, harassment of a witness and fraud. Almost 10 women were sexually harassed while under his employ. 8. Uday Hussain The son of Sadam Hussain, was famous for late night sex parties, unending string of rapes and murders, torturing women who slept with his brother. One of the examples of his pervasiveness is a 14-year-old girl - the daughter of a former provincial governor - with whom Uday became infatuated after spotting her at a party. Uday's bodyguards at first tried to simply lure her up to meet with the boss man, but she refused. When she reappeared 3 days later, she had been raped, but also provided with a new dress, a new watch and some money. Her father complained to Saddam, and then went public with the story, leading Uday to threaten to kill the governor unless he submitted both of his daughters (the other one was 12 at the time) to be his new 'girlfriends.' The governor complied. 9. Václav Klaus The President and former Prime Minister of the Czech Republic, was known for his extramarital affairs with flight attendants. Klaus' affairs go back to 1991 when he began a relationship with stunner Eva Svobodova. At the time, Klaus was 50 and she was just 29, but in true Hugh Hefner fashion, as he grew older, his ladies grew younger and blonder.In 2002, Kalus moved on to 24-year-old Klara Lohniska, who was not just a flight attendant on his official jet but also a college student studying economics. 10. Bill ClintonHis sex scandal emerged in 1998, from a sexual relationship with a 22-year-old White House intern, Monica Lewinsky. The news of this extra-marital affair and the resulting investigation eventually led to the impeachment of President Clinton in 1998 by the U.S. House of Representatives and his subsequent acquittal on all impeachment charges of perjury and obstruction of justice in a 21-day Senate trial. Clinton used to indulge in sexual activities with Monica inside the White House.
