2009-09-29
ZURICH - The Swiss Criminal Court says imprisoned director Roman Polanski has filed a motion requesting to be released. The court said in a statement Tuesday that it will make a decision "in the next weeks." Any verdict is subject to appeal from both sides. Polanski was arrested Saturday as he arrived in Zurich to receive an award from a film festival. The United States has been seeking his extradition for having sex with a 13-year-old girl in 1977.
