Ex-Ivory Coast President Gbagbo conditionally released to Belgium -court
Gbagbo was acquitted by the Hague court of atrocities charges last month but remained in custody until Friday, when an appeals court ordered him released. A court spokeswoman confirmed he has now travelled to Belgium.
Conditions of Gbagbo's release include his agreement to return to court if ordered to do so for an appeal planned by prosecutors. (Reporting by Toby Sterling; Editing by Lisa Shumaker)
