Director Roman Polanski has made a second bid for his freedom from prison since his arrest in Zurich on September 26th over the charge of having sex with 13-year-old Samantha Geimer in 1977.

Last week, the Swiss Justice Ministry rejected Polanski's plea for freedom amidst fears he would flee, as the filmmaker spent 30 years away from the United States in order to evade justice. Polanski's lawyer spoke on Monday, saying the new request had "adequate guarantees" Polanski would not flee if released. An official for the Swiss Criminal Court declined to comment.
