Headlining with "Roman Polanski can leave Switzerland a free man," Tages-Anzeiger reports on the 12 July release from house arrest of the film director who was taken into custody in September 2009. The Zurich daily has doubts about the ruling which turned down a request to extradite Polanski who fled the US while facing charges of having unlawful sex with an underage girl in 1977. It nevertheless hopes the decision will be useful to other prisoners who do not benefit from so much international support. Tages-Anzeiger’s front-page cartoon wonders which will be the next country to arrest the film maker: the United States or the United Kingdom. The question is addressed to Paul the Octopus who is none too happy about being disturbed, now that he has retired.
