Polanski lawyers clash over surrender to US

Lawyers for Roman Polanski clashed today over his legal strategy, with one saying the director will not surrender to US authorities after 31 years on the run and another suggesting that Polanski was ready to consider the move.

Attorney Herve Temime said there has been “no change in strategy”, telling reporters that Polanski will “continue to fight extradition” to the United States for having sex in 1977 with a 13-year-old girl.
