Prosecutor probes Roman Polanski on US extradition motion

FILE - In this Friday, Feb. 28, 2014 file photo, Polish-French film director Roman Polanski holds his best director award during the 39th French Cesar Awards Ceremony in Paris. Filmmaker Roman Polanski says he hopes Poland won't extradite him to the U.S., where he is wanted in a 1977 sex case. The Oscar-winning director is in Poland preparing for a movie, which he is planning to film in February and March. The U.S. justice authorities recently asked Poland to arrest and extradite Polanski, 81, who has Polish and French passports. In October, prosecutors in Krakow, where Polanski has an apartment, questioned him but refused to arrest him. They are planning to question him again following the arrival of the extradition request this month.
