ROME (AP) — A Hungarian court of appeal has upheld a request from an Italian anti-fascist activist to be moved from jail to house arrest in Budapest as she awaits trial. Authorities said Wednesday that the court approved Salis’ request upon payment of a bail of about 40,000 euros. The court said that Salis will be able to leave house arrest only with the special permission of the court and then will be monitored with an electronic bracelet. The appeal had been filed by Salis’ lawyers in late March after a judge denied her house arrest in both Hungary and Italy.
