The Swiss: Watch for the quiet ones

My BFF Ilona was brought up in Geneva so I know just a little about the Swiss. But what are they up to with Roman Polanski? Noah says they're telling everyone who owns their bank accounts now which frightens the Madoff set no end.

Why have they decided to hand him over to the US? The French have held him close like a puppy for decades since he fled the States after pleading guilty to
Usually I'm all in favour of hunting down the rapist to the grave but the woman he raped as a 13 year old doesn't want a bar of it.

In a tribute to Polanski, this site says that

Roman Polanski was born Raimund Liebling, in Paris, on August 18, 1933, to Polish-Jewish painter & plastics manufacturer Ryszard Liebling & half-Jewish Russian immigrant Bula Levy Polanski (who had left her first husband a year earlier to marry him).

When Raimund was three, the family moved to Ryszard’s native Krakow, Poland, but three years later the Nazis seized the country & interned the family in the Krakow ghetto. In a moment of tragedy that runs parallel to a scene in THE PIANIST, his parents were shipped off to the Treblinka concentration camp when the boy was eight. But Ryszard told his son to walk—not run—away, & he narrowly escaped being sent to the death camp where his mother was gassed, while she was four months pregnant. (Ryszard survived the camp & lived until 1984.)

The boy spent the next six years wandering through occupied Poland, living with various Catholic families in the countryside. Sadistic German soldiers sometimes would shoot at him for sport. At times, he protected himself as a member of a tough street gang.

So Roman's done his hard days. And that was before Sharon Tate and Charles Manson. Go away for work for a bit and your budding actress wife gets the most fame she could have hoped for, only not like that.

But the point is who was expecting the Swiss (Nazi gold hiders that they are) to roll over? And if they're going to be Mr Not-So-Neutral-Anymore Guy, then who's left?
