BEIJING, Sept. 6 (Xinuanet) -- British film star Jude Law has been
arrested on suspicion of attacking a photographer and released on bail
later, media reported Thursday.
The 34-old-year "Cold Moutain" actor was said to have
tried to grab the lensman's camera outside his west London house in the plush
Maida Vale district.
The photographer was alleged to have suffered minor
injuries in the incident.
Law then went voluntarily to Marylebone Police
Station in central London after the incident on Tuesday and was released on
police bail.
"A 34-year-old man from Maida Vale was arrested
yesterday on suspicion of actual bodily harm after voluntarily attending a
London police station," a police spokesman said.
"The arrest followed an allegation of assault
yesterday at a residential address in Maida Vale. The 34-year-old man was
released on bail to a date in October pending further inquiries."
Law provided police with a statement denying the
photographer's claims and making allegations of his own against the
snapper.
"Jude has the utmost respect for the police and
whilst this is an ongoing matter no further comment will be made." said Law's
lawyer Graham Shear.
Law, the star of "The Talented Mr. Ripley" and the
2004 remake of "Alfie," was just back from the Venice Film Festival showing of
his new film "Sleuth," a rewrite of the original 1972 thriller.
