We never thought it would happen, but Roman Polanski has now been arrested on those long, long-standing sex charges. The film director fled the US in 1978, a year after pleading guilty to unlawful sexual intercourse with a 13-year-old. Now 76, Polanski was arrested at Zurich airport in Switzerland, where he was arriving to receive an award.
He may yet be extradited to the US to face the charges – after fleeing to France when the now-deceased judge reneged on the original plea bargain. The victim, 45-year-old Samantha Geimer, has said previously she wants the case dismissed.ÂÂ
