Polanski wins bail but stays inside
Fugitive film director Roman Polanski has been granted £2.6 million bail to be released from prison and kept under house arrest and electronic monitoring at his Swiss chalet.
But the Swiss Justice Ministry said it will keep him in jail until it decides whether to appeal against his release to the country's supreme court.
The Swiss Criminal Court still considers Polanski a high flight risk but it said the new bail offer was high enough to satisfy it.
The decision does not affect the Swiss government's continuing assessment of whether it should extradite Polanski to the United States for having sex in 1977 with a 13-year-old girl.
