John Anthony Hill, a.k.a. Maud'Dib has been released on bail following his arrest and imprisonment in Dublin on a UK extradition warrant.

British born Mr Hill, who posted a copy of his documentary of the July London bombings, 7/7 The Ripple Effect, to the trial judge, is being sought by the UK authorities for 'attempting to pervert the course of justice' by sending the unaccompanied video to the judge, who incidentally never received it.

It is not know at this stage what further developments are to take place in the case.

He also mailed the DVD to the jury foreman, which I imagine is the alledged crime.
