Update:
Director Woody Allen continued to defend Polanski when questioned about his colleague on French radio.
Allen said Polanski "was embarrassed by the whole thing," ''has suffered" and "has paid his dues." He said Polanski is "an artist and is a nice person" who "did something wrong and he paid for it."
But according to the AP, it was unclear whether Allen was aware of the new allegations when he made the remarks on France Info radio from the Cannes Film Festival. Allen had previously signed a petition calling for Polanski's release.
