Houston, April 4 Indian-born fashion designer Anand Jon, charged last month with multiple counts of rape, has been released from an immigration court.

Jon, who was arrested on multiple charges of sexual assault, was freed on Monday. He was being held in lieu of USD 1.3 million bail, but attorney Ronald Richards was able to win his client’s freedom after claiming that a detention hold on him by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency was improper.

His attorney had retained the law offices of Jaehoh Suh to represent Jon in connection with the immigration detainer.

“Jaehoh Suh successfully convinced the government to terminate all immigration proceedings and Jon was released from custody at around 8.30 pm on Monday,”

Richards said.

Jon will be appearing in person in Division One of Beverly Hills Superior Court this morning.
