Chelsea Manning To Be Released From Prison

Reuters reports former US Army soldier and intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning is to be released from prison.

Manning was being held for refusing to testify in an ongoing U.S. investigation of WikiLeaks.

U.S. District Court Judge Anthony Trenga's docket in Alexandria, Virginia revealed he rejected a request by Manning to cancel fines.

Judge Trenga had imposed the fines himself for her refusal to testify.

Thursday, he ordered that a judgment be entered against her for $256,000, the total amount of accrued fines.

A detention hearing for Manning scheduled for Friday was canceled.
