The Swiss Justice Ministry has denied Roman Polanski's request to be released from prison pending a decision on extradition.
According to the Ministry, there's still a high risk that Polanski might go on the run if released from custody. Go figure.
Polanski's lawyers asked the Swiss judge to release him from custody ... on grounds the move by U.S. law enforcement to haul him back was illegal.

As he freely admitted having sex with a 13 year old, what's the problem?? Bring him back to the USA to be brought to justice. Easy

Absolulely DISGUSTING human being!!!
This child molester, sodomist!, drugger! raper, should be thrown behind bars (and hopefully beaten up a bit) for what he has done to that 13 year old child!!! He was supposed to be a trustful adult! What message does this *thing* send out to children??
Ugly, hateful man. Anyone who supports this pig needs to get their heads checked.
