Strauss-Kahn, two businessmen and a police chief had already been charged with "aggravated pimping in an organised gang" for allegedly organising a prostitution ring for orgies in France, the United States and elsewhere.
On Friday, a spokesman for the state prosecutor's office in the northern French city of Lille said that investigating magistrates had submitted new evidence that could also implicate the men in a gang rape.
"The Lille prosecutor was presented by the magistrates charged with investigating the 'Carlton affair' with a notice to make known, for whatever useful purpose, evidence of gang rape," the spokesman said.
It was understood the magistrates have not requested they be permitted to formally investigate an alleged rape, but for official purposes have warned the prosecutor that some testimony points in that direction.
