A French lawyer for Roman Polanski says he has submitted a new bail
offer to a Swiss court to try to free the filmmaker from jail.
Lawyer Herve Temime says the offer Monday includes "adequate
guarantees" that Polanski will not flee justice if released. The 76-
year-old director is awaiting a decision on extradition to the United
States.
Switzerland's Justice Ministry rejected a bail offer Friday,
considering Polanski a high flight risk. They noted it was not a cash
offer.
Temime said Sunday the new offer would include a "very, very
significant" cash amount, but on Monday, he gave no further details.
Polanski, arrested Sept. 26, is wanted in the U.S. for having sex with
a 13-year-old girl in 1977. Polanski fled the U.S. before sentencing.
