The International Criminal Court has ordered the release of Congolese ex-Vice-President Jean-Pierre Bemba ahead of his war crimes trial.
However the court said he would not be freed until it was decided which country would host him.
Mr Bemba, who led a rebel group during the Democratic Republic of Congo's civil war, was arrested in Belgium last year and extradited to The Hague.
The charges relate to unrest in the Central African Republic.
He says his troops were not under his command once they crossed the border.
