the World famous director Roman Polansky will not be given out to www.ria.ru Chesnokov/RIA Novosti news agency by the Polish law enforcement agencies in the USA. Now he will be able quietly to shoot the new movie in the city of the youth - Krakow.

we Will remind p to ul that the American justice accuses the director of "the illegal sexual intercourse with the woman to 18 years" - the corresponding formulation accompanies to this day the photo young still the Polansky Interpol on a site. It is a question of the history which has happened in the USA in 1977 when 13-year model Samantha Geymer accused Polansky of coercion to sex. The director went to the transaction with justice and pled guilty, but before sentence announcement for fear that the judge will not keep the promise, ran from the USA to Europe. Since then it did not appear in America, and could not get personally the award "Oscar" to the best director for the movie "Pianist" in 2002 at all.

A year ago the director was officially invited by p to opening of the Museum of History of the Polish Jews that gave to Americans a formal reason to send request for its extradition to local prosecutor's office. On October 30, 2015 the district court of the Polish city of Krakow passed the decision according to which Poland should not give out Polansky to law enforcement agencies of the USA. However, behind local prosecutor's office there was a right to submit the appeal on this decision till November 26. But, as reported on Friday the Polish TV channel TVN24, prosecutors did not begin to challenge a verdict as "did not find arguments which would allow to call into question correctness of opinion of court". Thus, the judgment came into force and Roman Polansky can not only stay in Krakow where passed its childhood, but also to shoot here some scenes for the new movie about Alfred Dreyfuss's well-known process according to the short story of the English writer Robert Harris "The officer and the spy".
