An apartment in Manhattan that the former police commissioner, Bernard Kerik, secured for his personal use after September 11, 2001, was originally donated for the use of weary police and rescue workers who were helping at ground zero, a real-estate executive says.

After the clean-up had settled into a routine, the executive said, Mr Kerik, who was still police commissioner, asked to rent the two-bedroom flat for his own use.

During his use of the apartment, Mr Kerik - who is married with two children and lived at the time in the Bronx - and Judith Regan engaged in an extramarital affair there, according to someone who spoke to Mr Kerik about the relationship. Ms Regan published Mr Kerik's best-selling autobiography in 2001. Mr Kerik refused to answer any questions on Tuesday regarding the flat.

The latest scandal to surface in connection with Mr Kerik's nomination for Homeland Security Secretary emerged as a government official admitted on Tuesday that the White House had failed to get a full picture of the moral and ethical problems buried in his personal and business life, despite hours of confrontational interviews of Mr Kerik by the White House counsel, Alberto Gonzales.
